I have finished a new book entitled Collected Essays: Volume Two. Copies available for anyone remotely interested. Email simonking19965@gmail.com if you are interested.
Collected Essays: Volume Two is King’s sixth book and, as the
title makes blatantly clear, his second collection of essays. Whilst King is
not an expert in anything, he certainly is enthusiastic about an array of
different subjects. King takes you on a scattershot adventure that traverses
millennia and an incongruous mix of subjects. Do you want to read a book which
contains insights into European art films, political philosophy, pre-Socratic
philosophy, modernist literature, post-war European history, avant-garde music,
the history of ideas, the history of dreams, economic history, New Hollywood
cinema and Latin American literature? Well, King might just have the right book
for you.
