        I get questions from friends concerning my review of Caryl Emerson's
book The First One Hundred Years of Mikhail Bakhtin that came out in
Philosophy and Literature (April 1999, vol.23, # 1), pp. 220 - 223. Some
people (who have not read it yet) asked if I trashed Emerson's book. Well, I
guess I did. Why? Just read the review. So, instead of explaining my
arguments in zillions of private letters, I decided to simply send the
review itself as an attachment to this message. Enjoy!
