Harold Bloom surveys with majestic view the literature of the West from the Old Testament to Samuel Beckett. He provocatively rereads the Yahwist (or "J") writer, Jeremiah, Job, Jonah, the Illiad, the Aeneid, Dante's Divine Comedy, Hamlet, King Lear, Othello, the Henry IV plays, Paradise Lost, Blake's Milton, Wordsworth's Prelude, and works by Freud, Kafka, and Beckett. In so doing, he uncovers the truth that all our attempts to call any strong work more sacred than another are merely political and social formulations. This is criticism at its best. This book is published by Harvard University Press.

although written earlier, this book is one of bloom's best. it covers homer, freud, shakespeare, milton, and kafka primarily. not the first thing you read by bloom, but one of the best pieces by bloom. i can only recommend 1 of his many books higher than this one: Where is truth to be found?Product details

Ruin the Sacred Truths Poetry and Belief from the Bible to the Present (Audible Audio Edition) Harold Bloom Mort Crim University Press Audiobooks Books Reviews
This is not the best of Bloom. It contains much which will be found in the later bestselling works but here comes in a more disjointed and often lackluster fashion. Bloom too exaggerates here in the name- dropping of critics, in the making of what may seem at times an esoteric set of arguments which only literary critics are capable of understanding. Still as enthusiast and great reader and lover of the world's best Literature Bloom provides much here worth reading and thinking about.
This is not an easy work to read, and the arguments are often tangled. But it is like all of bloom's work rich in ideas , and interesting suggestions.
