Peter Conrad’s attempt to mould the intellectual and artistic history of
the 20th century into one vast homogeneous patty earns points for chutzpah.
Modern Times, Modern Places, alas, is the sort of book you take out of the
library in your first term at college but never actually read. Published by
Thames & Hudson, £24.95, ISBN 0500018774.
