I'd have liked to be alive when paperback publishers were able to sell Faulkner and Aldous Huxley by littering the covers with decolletages and phrases like
Shocking! . . . Bold!
If every publisher still did things like that, we wouldn't be having these discussions about the supposedly exclusive strata of literature and genre fiction. A professor's reading list is not necessarily more dry or devoid of grunting than anyone else's.
