ldandridge's review against another edition
3.0
Some of the pieces were very interesting and powerful. Others just seemed pretentious to me. While I will never deny the important role that literature plays in culture, it seems many writers conceptualize themselves as a special class of person entirely unlike us “normal folks,” and that kind of rubs me the wrong way.
I didn’t realize until after I finished that it was published in 2009, and I wish I would have known that sooner as it probably colored some of my perceptions of the pieces. A lot has happened in the last 10 years.
