yes, the fact that anyone who strings together that many conjunctions in one sentence can be regarded as a canon writer is a sign of what generating a middle-class with buying power does to intellectual culture as a whole.
I'm halfway though it now and it does get a little tedious. Go here drink this, Brett Ashley is hot, go there eat that, Brett Ashley is a babe, have another drink, take another taxi, talk with someone else about Brett Ashley, have cofee, take a taxi to a bar...
