The Excercise of Judgment

NON FICTION. ALFAGUARA, 1995. 576 PÁGINAS.

A fundamental author of Spanish-language literature, Mario Benedetti combines the sensibility of a novelist and poet with the taste and precision of an essayist and the mature reflective capacity of a thinker. His abundant journalistic work, the sharpness of his critical analysis, have made him one of the points of reference of modern Spanish-speaking culture. Reprinted on numerous occasions, the texts gathered here constitute the most complete compilation of his thought, of his original way of approaching history, current affairs and literature, always at the service of the most generous principles and ethical values that constitute the valuable foundation of his work as a writer. Essential for its substance, The Excercise of Judgment brings together texts that cover more than forty-five years of critical work, from 1950 to 1994, as the fundamental core of its author's life.
