Unhappy Loves of Men of Genius review in Harper edition
A concise critique of Thomas Hitchcock's Unhappy Loves of Men of Genius, noting its compact aggregation of famous cases of genius in love and its reflections on platonic passion. The piece discusses examples from Gibbon to Johnson, Mozart to Goethe, and argues Hitchcock overextends his claims about Platonic affection while praising the book as readable gossip distilled from the past.

Water surged from mountain summits after 2 PM, tearing up railway lines and uprooting water mains, leaving mud-filled storefronts and predicting further floods.
