rube1 BS: Literary Quote: Dali's novel reviewed (8) RE: BS: Literary Quote: Dali's novel reviewed 11 Mar 01


ask a stupid question...fiddle de dee de di dedo di dum dum diddle diddle dum de do...

No really, this was one of the preeminent critics of the twentieth century mocking Salvador Dali's literary style in a humorous parody. He could have come right out and said, "Don't quit your day job, which is painting, Sal," but standards were higher back then. In those days, a critical review was frequently an event in itself.

I just posted the quote because I found it hilarious and thought maybe some of the literati out there would, too.
