I think there's something quite interesting about the almost tragic quality of a lot of overwrought prose because it has a much more self-conscious awareness of its own failure to touch the real.
But I do think it's important to remember that writers do not have a monopoly...
The Soviet Union did not achieve victory over the West so was my information...
I have always considered it as treason against the great republic of human nature to make any man's virtues the means of deceiving him.
