The book is in many ways a study in false polarities as exemplified by doublethink, defined as the ability to hold two conflicting beliefs simultaneously. Sales of the book have surged dramatically this month, so I thought I would add a few of my thoughts about it.

My favorite thing is when people say the things in their head. Not so much the opinions in the front of their head- the stuff they watch for- but further back, the things that are right there with them keeping them company at their vantage point... Binoculars, trinkets, idioms, night skylines. All the best comedy is from there.Cassie Lewishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17220186193139279722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11751605.post-69208681609024332692014-08-16T01:04:00.001-04:002014-08-18T09:08:24.660-04:00Nothing is
