Dinner and Derrida, or foody Foucault

How can you NOT read a restaurant review with the teaser tag:

"The non-testicular offal on the plate provided context for the gentle, white rooster's doodles"

And a passage like this:

"I am, after all, an English graduate. But that is the tragedy of it. For by the time I got to university, in 1988, books were no longer in fashion, and no matter how many books I read, the powers that were, the tutors, the examiners, did not want to hear about them.

They wanted to hear about Critical Theory. They wanted to hear about Marxist, Feminist, New Historicist, Cultural Materialist, Psychoanalytic, Structuralist and Post-Structuralist approaches to the critique of literature. But they did not want to hear about literature.

They wanted to hear about Jacques Derrida and Roland Barthes, about Foucault, de Man, Althusser, Lacan, and the tools they brought to the reading of books. But they did not want to hear about books."
