Mostly a very nice review (until he starts talking about non-Leonard issues), but as for the image of "naked & filthy" being unwelcome - I beg to differ on that - it is most definitely a more-than-welcome, quite lovely & delicious image! (Well, the author is a man, so perhaps that explains it). But I do like this phrase: ". . .many almost indecently intimate moments" (I think that was the wording - apologies if the quote if not exact).

Thank you for the post, remote1!

Yes, I hate it when people do that. (Not just in reviews, but in general.) :-)

The only thing I liked about this review "(tour dates to be announced later in the year, by the way)". Hope he's right about this at least.
