Other essays, such as Susan Sontag's "Photography" and Joan Didion's "In El Salvador," led to books that have since become widely known. Among essays on literature, music, and art are Robert Lowell's on Sylvia Plath, Igor Stravinsky's on Beethoven, and Robert Hughes's on Andy Warhol.
W. H. Auden reviews Oliver Sacks Migraine, Gabriele Annan the Berlin origins of Marlene Dietrich, and Isaiah Berlin writes on "Einstein and Israel." Other pieces in the anthology are by Joseph Brodsky, Bruce Chatwin, and Andrei Sakharov.
The anthology thus provides a sampling of the work that has made :The New York Review "the nation's preeminent journal of ideas."* Vissza
