Writer and author Alex Preston said he “made a serious mistake” after a reader spotted similarities between his review and one that appeared in the Guardian
Someone who spends their time analyzing the NYTimes book review, most likely massive privilege.
??? Jesus fucking christ. Maybe someone just decided to read two reviews of the same book from two popular book review outlets and saw obvious similarities. What the fuck is wrong with you? Why are you turning this bullshit assumption – from someone who didn’t even read the article – into the deranged straw-grasping of a cornered Ace Attorney villain who needs you to “prove the clock was three hours slow on the day of the murder”?
You don’t understand, man. Some people in this world don’t have food on the table. Having a computer to read book reviews-especially British book reviews-is privilege.
I’ll bet that snooty fat cat didn’t even have to use the last of their lentil rations to avoid fainting from hunger while they read the reviews. /frugaljerk
