The Captive Mind

"[This work] is a masterpiece...Most of the book is an argument developed with admirable concreteness: there is the bite of Milosz's teeth in every word...And, as it were, out of the entrails of his relentless seriousness, Milosz lets fall devastating pieces of irony, piercing witticisms. I am sure that in a hundred years people will read this passionate apologia, which conveys the most intense feeling of an age. More important, though, is that it should be read immediately."Czeslaw Milosz is the author of 'The Captive Mind', published 1990 under ISBN 9780679728566 and ISBN 0679728562.
