Negative Positive
Title: An Exercise in Self Absorbsion
Review: I found the author to be verbose. Too much of the book is information that only serves to fill pages with words. I found her research to be excellent, but her interpretation of this evidence takes one too many a leap of faith that is just not supported or justified. Time and again she says that she has no evidence to prove Sickert did certain things or was in certain places. She then turns and says she has no evidence to prove the opposite. When you base an entire book on the premise that it is impossible to prove a negative, you end up with the self absorbed clap trap that is the logic this author has produced in this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
