A Further Note To Ken On Reading More Of Martin Peretz’s The Controversialist

 Ken, 


I won’t keep doing this, I promise. 

But I read another +/- 55 pages and it got much better. 

Still all the quasi gossipy stuff, but he does take you breezily into the thick of the political things he involved himself in. 

I’m old enough to have lived in my head with some of what and whom he describes. So it’s geared up into pretty compelling reading. 

I’m just at the point where conference he helped organized got taken over by radicals and turned upside down from what he intended and planned for. 

What I’ve read does have the quality of, as they used to say on an old TV show, “You Are There!”.
