winnie the pooh likes hunny.
slyvia plath lent her copy of catcher to a young girl
she knew but the girl said something like "it was
boring" or some demeaning remark about that main
character and you could tell by the way ms. plath
wrote about the incident that she (like so many of
us) instantly condemned the girl for not recognizing
salinger's "drawing no. 1" as a boa constrictor
digesting an elephant but saying "why should i be
frightened of a hat?"
and much better critics of realism too, that the
silly little man named 31 who wrote half an essay on
the subject explaining why realism is called realism
and not 31ism.
but what about merce cunningham critics?
