Query: Foggy Criticism

Lawler's subject is timely and could have been an important contribution to the Pope-Holocaust debate. But he blew it. His writing is offputting and inaccessible to most. He seems more interested in parading his erudition than enlightening his readers. It's a poorly organized, convoluted slog through obscure allusions and flat attempts to be clever. Even William Buckley would give up on it. I'm sure he has something worthwhile to say on a subject vital to many of us. As I might once have told my english students: Read E.B. White's "Elements of Style" and start over.
