Title: An unfortunate, uncritical restatement of old ideas
Review: What might have been a helpful critique of limitations in current literary criticism is fatally flawed by a basic unfamiliarity with philosophy and literary theory. It's a rambling collection of familiar complaints, ending with an implicit suggestion that everything was better 40 years ago and we should just all come to our senses. A very sad documentation of the poverty of ideas in the moribund culture wars.
