I just finished reading Jack London's 'John Barleycorn' which was good. However, has anybody else wondered about someone taking the unilateral decidsion to put in a massive introduction by a 'scholar' on the subject. Telling you the storyline and what the writer was thinking and so on. I have decided i am not reading them anymore and have decided to let the books speak for themselves.
Oh gods, I know the sort of thing and frankly I skip over them.
If I'd wanted to read some tedious diatribe by someone who can't just enjoy a book for what it is, I'd have bought *that* instead of the book I'm trying to read!!
