Review title: Hate it with all my guts
Product review: Some people are born writers; others, natural stylists. Some people come into the world with the enviable ability to philosophize; others are blessed with a no less enviable gift to think through an idea logically and clearly. Which puts G. W. S. Trow in an awkward position: for though he could not write well, he yet fancies himself a great stylist; and though his critical thinking is at best muddle-headed and derivative, he yet imagines himself an oracular critic of the sharpest distinction. Reading this re-publication of Trow's throw-away essay instantly brought to mind that immortal phrase Dwight Macdonald used to lampoon Jimmy Gould Cozzens's prose style: malphony exfoliates.
