    much better than those inbreds are saying, April 28, 2003 Reviewer: Elizabeth Stevens from Providence RI If you've gone to colege and have had to endure the [modest] writing of literary critics since the 1960s, this book will read like pure exbasy to your nervous system. Though it functions for me generically as self-help, it's also whimsical and wandering as a good narrative should be. Ultimately meta, Rosenheim's prose is dense but not impossible- if you have been indoctrinated by higher learning to see texts as coded puzzles, you'll find this book exemplifies the technique it decodes. If you are a genius like me, you'll love it, or you are unfit to hold your post.
