[Muzzy · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's not all so bad as I feared around the middle of the book. Whicher's portrait of Emerson is realistic, level-headed, and very adult. For those of us who prefer early Emerson and like to ignore the later essays, Whicher can seem like he's raining on our parade. But the final chapter redeems it all. As he departed for his final tour of England, Emerson emerged as a wise old scholar, fully integrated in his thought and concerns. Whicher gives me a new respect for the late Emerson of "the Conduct of Life," and now I'm planning on going back to re-read those essays once again. More seriously this time.
