I love a balanced view, even when it totally contradicts everything I believe in. Russell Smith is always smart and funny, so I can't resist sharing this: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/arts/russell-smith/reading-boosts-empathy-but-sympathy-for-the-devil-too/article2434756/
I see his point. I do recall leaving the movie Clockwork Orange, and seeing a young man who was also leaving the theatre-- he momentarily flashed that look that the sociopath protagonist flashed before he was about to perform yet another despicable act. Eyebrow cocked and all... Yikes...
Meanwhile, I keep reviewing advance copies that haven't been published yet, and I'm waiting till their release dates to post my findings. Maybe I should go pick up that 'hold' at the library so I can update this blog!
