Welcome to Coup de Des: Arts & Letters of Victor A. Schramm. 

All work posted here is the work of me, Victor Schramm. I’m an Investment Advisor from Oregon with a B.A. in Russian & East European Studies. You’ll find mostly art criticism here on this site, because that’s what I’ve been writing on recently. You’ll find some other literary criticism at some point, I’m sure. Every so often I might post about philosophy, theology, and occasionally economics. Enjoy, and don’t be shy: your comments are always welcome.
