theoretical
Interesting but ultimately impossible to read clear through. I agree with other reviewers who said Graves' theories are riding the subjective pretty heavily; however, if taken with a grain of salt, his tangents are at least entertaining.
Strangely though, as I get older, the less I am willing to blindly get behind people who think anything penis-shaped is bad. That's not to say Graves thinks this, but his book... It's one of those books that a lot of angry-but-fashion-conscious college students will drag their knuckles across, squinting, perhaps twirling their ironic wispy mustaches, proceeding then, of course, to drop references to it in the coolest corner of some patio party all night long.
