5.0

he's the goat! what can I say! what Eliot Weinberger does is write poetic essays, essays that stretch the limit of what the essay can do. And isn't that the very being of the essay form? Since Montaigne it's been an essai, or an attempt to say something in a new way.

Weinberger never fails to stake his intellectual claims deeply and articulately, whether arguing about the poetic relationship between the East and West, or the intellectual claims of Atlantis. Please seek him out this shit rules.
