Milosz's Happiness. So Chestertonian -- and for me there are few words (if any) that mean something more beautiful. It's not just my admiration for GKCh that makes me say so. I found my new favourite author (only Andric was my new "acquisition" during all post-school years). His speech flows like water, and is almost as easy to read. And the language in this essay really resembles GKCh; language of images, too. One should not forget though that GKCh in my mind is, first of all, Trauberg's GKCh: both linguistically and critically, I guess. And she knew Milosz (?).

But this piece of prose is even better than GKCh, for it is free of his sometimes tiresome wordplay.
