Guest Blogger: Steve

As you may recall from our introduction of Steven, he is a man who engages in making fun of the whole idea of blogs, yet he blogs on a consistent basis. Here is an example.



A blog, by Steve, in the guise of a g-chat away message:


When I was a boy, the bestselling books were often the books that were on your piano teacher's shelf. I mean, Steinbeck, Hemingway, some Faulkner. Faulkner actually had, considering how hard he is to read, and how drastic the experiments are, quite a middle-class readership. But certainly someone like Steinbeck was a bestseller as well as a Nobel Prize-winning author of high intent. You don't feel that now. I don't feel that we have the merger of serious and pop— it's gone, dissolving. Tastes have coarsened.
