I searched for a book who could be a good introduction to the Eternal CityBy fernandoIn the preparations for a recent trip to Italy; I searched for a book who could be a good introduction to the Eternal City; I didntwant a tourist guide but something deeper; something that could provide me with the insights of why Rome is the way it is. Thats how I found "Rome" by Robert Hughes; a great book which was not only an introduction to Rome; but also to Robert Hughes; since -living in Mexico; I didnt know nothing about him."Things I didnt know" was a great memoir of things I didnt know; it depicts not only Robert Hughes life -at least from his childhood to his adult years- but also those years in which the world was not so overcrowded; where great art masterworks could be contemplated peacefully and where places and towns were authentic; with their own nature; alas; those times are gone. Reading this book -which I started doing in Rome- was like having a great storyteller friend next to me in every bar; trip; lunch I had.What I really regret is that theres not a second part of Hughes memories; what happened during his years in the states?Great reading; funny; insightful; powerful and humane.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Entertaining Memoir - Too Bad Theres No Volume 2By Robert W. HermansonThis memoir by the famous art critic and author tracks his life from his birth in 1938 to about 1970 when he embarked on his stint as art critic for Time magazine and started to become famous. As with many memoirs; coverage is uneven; and in some sequences the timeline is confusing. But Hughes is at his most informative when he indulges in brief digressions about art and artists he has known; and at his funniest when he savages the foolishness of swinging London in the 60s (the Jimi Hendrix story is priceless.) The first chapter is unforgettably personal and touching; as he remembers a horrific auto crash in 1999 in Western Australia and its aftermath. I am sorry he published only this volume; as it stops just before he became a public figure and "the most feared art critic of his time;" as the Wall Street Journal put it.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
