Conspiracy theory abounds.
I'm not convinced that this whole Book Description fiasco is a flat-out
"hoax" just yet. We'll just have to wait and see what text is officially
posted on Amazon, so I'm reserving judgment until then. Either way, I don't
find the quickly removed Book Description all that "damaging" to P's
reputation. I, too, was reminded of the M&D book flap blurb. As to how
stylish and literary it is, well ... as someone here said, "It's a blurb."
Whataya expect ...
