I've heard some of these stories, and others seem to be jokes, or something. Nevertheless, they're interesting reading to hear about what goes bump in the Commonwealth.
NB: The Chemical Brothers are weird.

It's kind of harsh, but it's what I'd expect from someone so far on the opposite end of the writing field. I'm amused by WFB's recounting of the San Francisco Chronicle's statement, that Thompson served as a hero to an entire generation of American students. I suppose that would be a generation not my own; if it were a generation that was forming some time in the 1970s, it might explain why literature is so boring these days. When you resort to either David Halberstam on baseball or Walter Russell Mead on foreign policy for page-turners, the American novel is well on the decline. (Or even a book on diesel locomotives of the Norfolk Southern Railway...--Ed.)
Read the whole column.
