The pinnacle of Fuster's essay writing, Final Judgements is a book
of aphorisms that, used to teach moral and/or philosophical truths,
reveal things that are relevant to the universal human experience.
As Adam Gopnick of The New Yorker puts it, "the aphorism is, in its
algebraic abbreviation, a micro-model of empirical inquiry." And
Fuster uses the aphoristic tradition, less to establish truths than
to undermine them, to question the conceits contained in the
established truism. Despite the seriousness of its subject matter,
however, this book is laugh-out-loud funny, Fuster's wit revealing
that the best aphorisms are based in stripping language of its
artifice and revealing its contradictions, and the cumulative
effect is a quintessentially Mediterranean kind of playfulness.
