That's different. You're a reader, but he's a reviewer doing his job. I 
don't know, but writing a review about not reading the book... there is 
something pathetic about it. He seems to have failed with AtD as well.


"My hat is off to Vikram Chandra, and Thomas Pynchon, too—both of whom have 
lately written enormous novels. They are flying in the face of evidence that 
the world no longer has time for long, leisurely books. I commend their 
courage and their spirit, but I fear their days are numbered, for while a 
writer writes what he or she must, the days of Thackeray and Fielding and 
George Eliot are not coming back."
