No Judgement by Lauren Oyler: Literary Batman strikes her
targets in unexpected ways
“I don’t really know why I write criticism,” says Lauren Oyler, prominent literary critic, in this essay collection. Still she continues, correcting cultural wrongs for uncertain rewards: “It’s probably a bit too much about an illusion of justice for me, really.” A serious book with an unserious title, No Judgement explores, with acuity and wit, the question of what criticism can and should be in our times.
