That says something remarkably outstanding with the fettle of the principled passion: that it is based on a corporation in the fitful and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a spy than like a prize, something rather dainty, but whose mere special handsomeness is inseparable from that fragility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798319569696701934.post-54339548811510093412010-05-27T15:02:45.913-04:002010-05-27T15:02:45.913-04:00Pretty bold statement to call it a classic, but I ...Pretty bold statement to call it a classic, but I completely agree with it. However, I take issue with it only being at #6 in 2009.
