What a witch!

“I could not believe this woman. She shoulders an air of objectivity, but she has nothing but contempt for what she speaks about. I listened to her lecture on On the road, and she has everything negative to say about it, nothing positive. She gets giddy saying "oh I love it when the publisher..." and goes on to explain how the publisher left in a typo in the first sentence of the novel; he left the typo in the original manuscript because he felt it added to the feel of the novel. She "loves it" because she thinks him stupid for buying into the feel of the novel that Kerouac espoused. Little does she realize that her "love", and the things that she says she "loves" throughout her lecture are of a sadistic nature.
I didn't care much for my profs in college. Since I never read novels published after 1945, I thought that these lectures would be enjoyable. I will take the reading list from this, but I will pray for academia and all the poor kids who have to listen to this--and they pay big money too. How unfortunate. This woman is the Rush Limbaugh of academia.”
