Partial Payments - Essays on Writers and Their Lives (Paperback)

"Epstein's range is extraordinarily wide. He writes with the same urbane ease and seemingly intimate knowledge of Arnold and Santayana, of Waugh and S. J. Perelman, of Henry James and Tom Wolfe, of Dreiser and Marguerite Yourcenar, of Chekhov and Walter Lippmann, of Borges and E. B. White. The essays have charm. . . . They are, in short, an ornament to belles-lettres."—Times Literary Supplement

"One of the best collections of criticism to appear in the past year. . . . [Epstein] is one of our finest critics as well as a cultural commentator of great perceptiveness and subtlety. . . . [A] superb book."—George Core, Hudson Review
