George Balanchine

Sorry to be a nit-picking reader, but the banality of:

"Ultimately, though, I don’t actually think it diminishes the pleasures of reading. The idea of a pure reading experience is a myth, anyway, because purity is a myth..."

diminishes what could have been an interesting article. The writer goes on to use words like 'over-determined', and 'Enlightenment', which leads me to believe that he or she has read far too much Foucault, Derrida, and all the other phonies of post-Modernism.
