I'm a man who likes everything strictly under my own thumb, intellectual choices especially. Anyway, after a few frustrated minutes of looking, I finally found the Eagleton book, opened it and immediately fell upon this gem of a sentence, "Truly civilized societies do not hold predawn power breakfasts."
This was enough for me to shell out the 16 clams and now I very much look forward to drinking a very terrible Spanish white blend wine on my deck as I read this, no doubt, tremendous book.
