Kirja-arvosteluja

Generally speaking I regard Bloch as a very capable writer, but too grim for my taste (Psycho etc.). The stories involve a parody of interaction between traditional medieval fantasy --knights, dragons etc. and the modern world, as represented by Thin Tommy's Bar, a setting not unlike Gavagan's Bar in De Camp and Pratt or Robinson's Callahan's Cross-time Saloon. Bloch has added an afterword explaining how he wrote these stories under the influences of Damon Runyon and Thorne Smith.

A wonderful bilingual anthology; my first exposure to modern poetry in French, Spanish, German, and Italian, and the one Blok poem included helped get me interested in Russian.
