Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968) was a highly influential English critic and poet. Originally published in 1929, this volume gathers together nine of Read's essays, with each one covering a different author. The essays, all of which made their first appearance in The Times Literary Supplement, are centred around the concept of 'glory' and its manifestation in works of a particularly transcendent nature. Written in an engaging style, this book will be of value to anyone with an interest in literature and literary criticism.
