Ouch!

... John Barrell is singularly unimpressed by Christopher Hitchens's biography of Thomas Paine: The Positions He Takes. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

  1. Nobody writes a bad review like a Brit; they're just so POLITE in their eviscerations. I kinda like Hitchens (though I hardly agree with him on anything), but it does elicit schadenfreude to read someone give him the kind of review he can give someone else.
