Ok, I agree with you generally, I personally don't want any plot or theme 
spoliers, and I intend to fight shy of detailed reviews which, inevitably, 
reveal such details. But if I could pick and choose, I certainly wouldn't 
object to seeing a substantial excerpt (hello? Penguin?), maybe the first 
chapter, which you frequently see available in print and/or online for other 
novels.
