Title: Not worth any amount of your time
Review: The preponderant 'massive swelling' in this collection is that of Cintra Wilson's ego. At no times does her prose effuse anything other than the superficial, the facile, and the obvious; lacerating Michael Jackson and Barabara Streisand does not an insightful essayist make. Her incessant sarcasm and rambling sentences are abrasive, not trenchant. At the end of the day, you'll feel dirty and appreciably less human for struggling through this slight, self-congratulatory, sanctimonious diatribe.Wilson doesn't seem to appreciate that without the reviled subjects of her ire, she would have no means of articulating just how smart and cultured and hip she is. These essays are as revelatory as food poisoning; this is cultural critique of the lowest caliber.
