Anarchy and Order: Essays in Politics

He is poet, writer of imaginative prose, writer of reminiscences and fine prose stylist, literary critic, art scholar, philospher of aesthetics and of education through art, and leader of the avant-garde in modern painting, sculpture and architecture. Ine ach of these roles he has made his mark.
