Title: Maybe McPhee is not so good a writer?
Product review: Well, I hate to burst your bubble, because I like McPhee, but his latest effort seems to be trying to hit the sweet spot in the American public by using a sixth grade vocabulary. Also, the English language seems to be becoming more and more passive tense oriented and nounish in sentence structure (not unlike this sentence has become). Where is the active voice? That's why I like foreign languages better. You can write a sentence in Latin like: delendam esse Carthaginem (simple and direct).Anyhoo, like people who think high culture is going to Las Vegas, I doubt anybody agrees with what I have to say (there's that passive voice again).
