1.0 out of 5 stars NO, November 15, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Wilde's Intentions: The Artist in his Criticism (Hardcover)
I read the book for a class assignment and found it very difficult to read. The author's thoughts are chopped with quotes in almost every sentence making it very hard to follow. After the first 100 pages I had to go back to reread the text because I had no idea what I had just read. Danson speaks a language only a fellow doctor of Enlish could translate accurately.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dullsville, January 30, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Wilde's Intentions: The Artist in his Criticism (Hardcover)
This book concerns a fascinating subject--Oscar Wilde's brilliant, revolutionary literary criticism, a series of essays and essay-dialogues published under the title _Intentions_. Unfortunately, Danson neither illuminates Wilde nor credits him with the originality and daring that Wilde's literary criticism deserves. Danson's writing is a mix of murky jargon and an occasional interesting insight.
