So, you're a high brow critic being asked to review decidedly low-brow work. How do you handle it?
This Maureen Corrigan review of Nora Roberts' latest bodice ripping thriller represents a pretty sterling effort. Corrigan recognizes that this is a lose-lose proposition, yet she forges forward anyway, doing her critical duty knowing that it will not make a damned bit of difference in a world where too many bad books outsell (by the millions) too many good books.
