             Book Reviewers Promote Freedom by Giving Orders

                                   “Obey me and be free!”

           -Number Six in the Free for All episode of The Prisoner

The irony of the imperative in most reviews
Is to make a command that the reader must heed
Keeping in chains the literary muse:
You must read this must-read which you need to read
Admittedly, "must-read" is not as tedious as "weaves a tapestry."
