When you’ve got an introduction that not only smacks of smugness but damn near screams “I’m an egotistical provocateur!” You can bet your bottom dollar someone’s going to talk about it.
Okay. . . so have you read the book?
Skimmed, don’t own a copy myself. With all the talk going on about it I had intended to check it out more fully. I won’t say my skimming and checking of reviews have left me with a full grasp, (how could it?) I’m just not interested enough to read it in full. Chiefly because of his steps, presentation, or his couching things in vague (and not so vague) religious themes.
The chaos from femininity talk is particularly off putting. Even as an allegorical device.
