Editorial Review | "Absorbing. . . . An almost Proustian portrait." --The New York Times "Said has turned the writing of a memoir itself into perhaps the most profound type of homecoming a perennial exile can know." --The Village Voice Literary Supplement "Engrossing. . . . [Said has] an almost Proustian feel for smells, sounds, sights, and telling anecdotes." --The New York Review of Books "If autobiography is above all a means of explaining one's self to oneself, then Out of Place . . . must be seen as a triumph." --The Boston Globe From the Trade Paperback edition. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. |
