    I liked Paglia's book on poetry.

    Even bought it for my brother-in-law a few Christmases ago.

    She really should stick to benign lit crit.

    Oh, and by the way, how many more admitted conservative letter writers have to say, "Gee, Camille, I love your stuff, and I agree with most of it, and you seem so very intelligent, not at all like other stupid liberals" before people stop calling her a liberal?
