Is the writing good?
“Cocaine Bear” includes such lines
as “An apex predator ... high on cocaine ... and you’re headed right towards
it” and “The bear! It f---ing did cocaine.”
“The Courage to Be Free” includes
such lines as “The failure to robustly wield authority permits the
unaccountable leviathan to metastasize.” (This is a description of the federal
government.)
…
What kind of things would you
text your friends while you consumed it?
“Cocaine Bear”: “cocaine bear is
phenomenal”
“The Courage to Be Free”: “This
book will never end. Yet is somehow only 262 pages long.”
And not only that, but "to robustly wield" is a split infinitive.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit I missed that nuance.
