“Lionel Abel succeeds in entertaining us with great stories about the artists and writers in Greenwich Village and Paris in the 1930s and ‘40s, and at the same time in shrewdly exposing the moral and political consequences of literary and artistic modernism. The Intellectual Follies is a fascinating memoir on an important subject.” ―Gertrude Himmelfarb
A member of that distinctive group of New York intellectuals who came of age during the thirties, Lionel Abel chronicles a half-century of ferment in politics, the arts, and the world of ideas. Along with his spirited analysis of issues and movements, he gives us vivid accounts of his talented contemporaries."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
