It's not true that I uniformly hate pop culcha, just almost all of it. In the coming year I'm planning on reading what more of the Dave Branstetter mysteries by Joseph Hansen that I haven't already read, even though I suspect anyone who writes that many books must have churned a few of them out. It reminds me of the period. Good and bad. It's not great art but he was a good writer.
"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it." Jack Levine: January 3, 1915 – November 8, 2010 LEVEL BILLIONAIRES OUT OF EXISTENCE
