"In addition to the many excellent comics and essays herein, Chris Ware's brilliant editorship is felt as a second presence whispering perverse wisdom into the reader's ear.

With all of it's flaws, and in the face of so many better comics that I've given 5 stars to, it wouldn't deserve such a high rating, but...this comic book raised me like I was it's child!

Despite getting only a median rating, Abelard is a TOTAL ASSHOLE. Augustine, Boethius, and now this. I am so sick of hearing these goofy motherfuckers attempt to denigrate sex. What a pernicious contribution to western civilization. Imagine a world where the pent up energy people have is expended, not on war and aggression as it is now, but on sweet love making. Oh, wow, Abelard, we're so impressed that you've sworn this devout vow of celibacy...AFTER you've already been castrated. Very impressive, d-bag....less
