therapy

Harold Bloom and Stephen King are not for it. Stephen King said it would 'put a hole in his bucket'. Harold Bloom said it would make him happier, but more boring, flatter, leveller, more consistent, more boring and unworthwhile, he implied, in every way. Adam Phillips is circumspect - is circumspection anything more than a refusal to 'take short views'? Can we only be interesting, valuable and creative if we're invested in fucked-up oppositions? Can we get over this addiction to binaries? Please?
