" my God...I should just read books!"

Baudelaire says that a critic does more harm praising something he does not really like than by writing an ignorant bad review. In the introduction to "The Story of O" the writer of that introduction says a critic should never be afraid to make a fool of himself. I will demonstrate why both of these principles are true by ignoring them and then I write my review of the review of "Tell me I'm Worthless" because the reviewer, this White Pube person sounds sexy in her quiet, bright, and menacing anger. Run-on sentence! Edgar Allen Poe had the sad and humorous weakness of never giving a bad review to a beautiful woman whom he had the least chance of meeting in person. The print record does not lie. Even though Baudelaire admired Poe...I'm going to read "Tell Me I'm Worthless" for all the crazy-wrong reasons and I am horrible person. -Richard Allen White-Austin TX...USA
