"mannery"

[Wilson Gray]

I'd always enjoyed the former Ursula Kroeber's novels. Unfortunately,
I once read an unfortunate short story of hers in which she damned
Affirmative Action with loud damnation, thereby taking the fun out of
*all* (judging all by one: "Turnabout is fair play," to coin a phrase)
of her writing for me.
