Re: vitriolic attacks, like a wedge

There's always that interesting comment in Seymour's letter to Buddy in
S:AI that writing wasn't Buddy's profession, it was always his religion.
 I think the line between religion and art was pretty blurred in
Saligner, but there's still a dogmatism hovering over some of his works
that smacks more of specific party line religion than touchy feely
"spirituality" that doesn't really assert much of anything.
