Some sympathy with Gerald England on the matter of reviews: it's
darned difficult to get people to do them, and in truth there's no
great inducement for people to do so. Except this: if "we" don't
register, in such organs as are available to us, the books we like,
who the hell will do so?
I'd happily have these britpo bulletins duplicate reviews which
appeared elsewhere, if the appropriate permissions were sought. My
proposal of reviewlets, or notices, was a halfway house, for people
who wanted to enthuse, but didn't want to do the full review bit.
