Never having been particularly PC here at Signs of Life, we’d like to recommend another fascinating, if controversial book. In The Politically Incorrect Guide to English and American Literature, editor of the Conservative Book Club Elizabeth Kantor takes readers on a fascinating tour through great literature in all its politically incorrect glory. She includes a syllabus and a guide to the English literature education most people were denied in school. You’ll learn how Beowolf teaches us to admire heroes, Shakespeare shows how some choices are inherently destructive, and from Flannery O’Connor we learn that even modern American liberals aren’t immune to original sin. As a future dead white male, I’m delighted by this rehabilitation of those of my persuasion.
