For those still looking for a 2020 reading resolution,
An Author’s Thoughts about Literary Criticism.
I just take sometimes offence at some critics who base their weighting of a novel on a very narrowly defined scale and sometimes these scales are provided by academics whose job it is to provide an informed opinion about them and not some biased fodder.
Why do people always want to read about misery?
The simple answer? Because it makes them feel fortunate.
