    The Louis Menand (New Yorker) history of literary
    intellectuals in 20th century America seems to illustrate
    perfectly my view of them as bald men squabbling over
    the possession of a comb.

    I'm intrigued to learn that Jim turns to such self-regarding
    clowns when he has decided: '... to make sense of [his life],
    find meaning in [it]... live [it]better ...'
