Summary: Extraordinary
Comment: Essentially a long gloss on a single painting, this is the best book of art criticism I have ever come across, bar none. Snow literally forces your eye to slow down, and drink in the detail, the nuance, and the shifting structures of Breugel's astoundingly complex painting "Children's Games". I couldn't disagree more strongly with the Kirkus review above - the language is at times non-conversational, but if read slowly, patiently, and in tandem with the plentiful illustrations, this book will unlock more of the complexities of this fascinating (and very modern) painter than an entire stack of critical studies.
