"A review is not measured by the number of stars and scoops it gets. Good literature is produced by a few queer people in odd corners; the use of a review is not to force talent, but to create a favourable atmosphere." —T. S. Eliot to Ford Madox Ford, 1924

An Interview with Phillip Parotti

"Allenby was magnificent that day, outmaneuvering Liman Von Sanders in the same way and in the same tight place where Richard had once outmaneuvered Saladin. With the breach made, ten thousand cavalry were loosed across the Turkish rear, and after that nothing could restore the Jackos' defenses.
