Reading with Eliot Weinberger [ USA ]


Weinberger’s pieces are so beautiful they leave the reader breathless. His writing teeters on the edge between poetry and essay. The best example: his text about stars, from which he will read, is too lyrical for an essay and too analytical for a prose poem. His essays, celebrated by international feuille­tons for their stylistic intensity and intellectual sharpness, have been translated into more than thirty languages.
