That's unfortunate. I'm expecting this book as a Christmas present. Did you enjoy any of his previous works?

He should stick to documentary and literary and social criticism. There are few chasms of reality than between a critic's non-fiction and his fiction. It is in trying to cross this divide that most critics display their inability to create believable, substantial, and captivating fiction and to critique their own works objectively.

The Painted Word, From Bauhaus to Our House, and The Right Stuff are all excellent. I couldn't get through Bonfire. I tried, just couldn't do it.
