Title: Sad
Product review: Harold Bloom has finally buried himself in his own academic babble. Nonesense begets nonesense in this book and Bloom fights straw men of his own making while never really giving a solid, well-reasoned aesthetic to base his rant upon.As a professional writer with 54 hour minor in English, I find this book a great disappointment for it neither defends, explains, nor promotes the canon of great literature in any clear or reasonable way. It is sad to see a once sharp mind so lost in itself like this.I gave the book two stars because it does serve to stire up the conversation about great books, thus does make a valuable contribution in that light. It does little else.
