Negative Positive
Title: Weak
Review: Inevitably, essays on 9/11 written in the days and weeks afterward suffer from the passage of time and new facts and information. These ruminations seem horribly stale and somewhat knee-jerk leftist. The essayist isn't just a poor man's Howard Zinn, but a very, very poor man's Howard Zinn. (And I like Howard Zinn.) Why do we care about his ruminations, again? He's a translator and editor of Latin American and Chinese poetry and prose. I'm not sure his thoughts on 9/11 are worth much more than my dog groomer's.
Is the review positive or negative?
