I downloaded a copy. I like the insight, but the author's girl power gloating and insinuations makes the text drag a bit. Definitely a worthwhile read in spite of the text dripping Estrogen. Less essential than Ring Lardner's "You Know Me Al" but reading the two back to back is an interesting juxtaposition. Ring Larder's book presents Jack.
Jack is the most average of all American minds though his right arm is exceptional. That Salinger's neurotic derp is the high school English "coming of age" story and Lardner's tale of Jack's ideas painfully clashing with reality is nowhere in the curriculum is a damning indictment of the education "profession" in the US.
