Perictione in Colophon Reflections on the Aesthetic Way of Life

"[I]rony is a weapon that should be used with care. The knowingness with which Scruton alludes to his own fictions, and the way in which he invites his reader to collude in the inventions, tends to make the whole thing appear an elaborate joke....It is hard, therefore, to take seriously even the subtext of the book--an attack on vulgar culture and on the laissez-faire morality of a consumerist culture which surfaces from time to time, and is, on close scrutiny, deeply felt."Scruton, Roger is the author of 'Perictione in Colophon Reflections on the Aesthetic Way of Life' with ISBN 9781890318598 and ISBN 1890318590.
