"One-bore" shows a certain wit. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Desmond Swords" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, May 14, 2010 3:14 PM Subject: Re: "wow" Hello Professor Pollack. Thanks for the encouragement. I have just watched you on youtube pontificating to a class of creative writing students. What struck me was you refer to yourself as a marxist and begin most of what you drone on about with a negative assumption. The Greeks had prose but it was awful; you (in some blurb) write of your work belonging not to 'the navelgazing mainstream or the academic pseudo-avant-garde', but a one-bore school of, what I found, forgetable. Most others too; going on how many hits you have on youtube. Cheers
