Losing Faith in the Humanities
According to The Chronicle Review, Simon During's "Losing Faith in the Humanities" was "recently in the review," but not among their top ten reads of 2019. "The Disgusting New Academic Novel"--whose author included two paragraphs on Fight for Your Long Day without having read, understood, or appreciated the book or its nuances--was also "recently in the review" although also not part of the top ten.
