It is, I had forgotten just how much I enjoy reading his work.
There is a lot of political work which is well written and important, but so few that are a genuine pleasure to read just with the flow and writing alone.
To absorb the book's lesson, it helps to read it self-critically, i.e., not as a condemnation of current bad govt. but as a critique, by analogy, of problems in US culture as a whole. We're all potentially implicated.
