It'll be a real shock when he realizes that Freedom and liberty don't mean dropping bombs on civilians and torturing them until they tell you what they want to hear.

It was a death and destruction class that included <i>The Lottery</i> and a lot of Poe, which I thought violated the spirit of "world" lit, but the woman who taught it would have been a Goth today. I have serious doubts as to whether the Shrubbery could understand the point of the book. I think he was fooled by the use of "existential" by by Israelis to describe the war with Lebanon and asked for an "existential" book.
