My English birthday being next Shabbos, my husband has been on a book-present buying spree. He gave me three of them last night, largely because they're "extras" and came in the same Amazon box. He has a main present he's keeping hidden and secret.
So. One is Shreibman's The Science and Fiction of Autism. One is Levitt and Dubner's Freakonomics ("I was waiting for the paperback!" "It's a bestseller still. You might wait years.")
The last is the latest Ann Coulter. Yeah, I know, but yelling at books can be fun.
And who ever designed the cover? Hates her.
How can I tell?
Her photograph shows dark roots. And there's no reason for that except hate - assuming that she even showed up without a touch-up, it's too easy to adjust the color later.
Unless, of course, they *did* adjust the color. The wrong way...
I'm just wondering why she or her publisher let that pass.
