| Synopsis: |
"An aphorism never coincides with the truth: it is either a half-truth or one-and-a-half truths," wrote Kraus. The aphorism was "a sub-genre [Kraus] considered the height of linguistic integrity. . . . With the help of notes and introductions by Zohn, the subtlety and archness of Kraus' linguistic gifts shine through." Peter Filkins, "Bloomsbury Review" "Kraus is a superb aphorist." D. J. Enright, "New York Review of Books"" |
