The Anatomy of Influence: Literature as a Way of Life by Harold Bloom

3.0

Yes, I made it through the monster. It made me re-read Milton and discover John Ashbery. It probably deserves four or five stars. But it also contains this sentence, referring to D.H. Lawrence's "Song of a Man Who Has Come Through": "Lawrence's joy, which he makes into aesthetic gratification, presumably was enabled by overcoming prior sexual overexcitement through the agency of anal intercourse." So. Yes. Sorry, Harold, only three stars.
