Gods of the Copybook Headings

Glenn Beck's book joins the growing genre of anti-totalitarian fiction books. Actually, the borders of the genre merges with the 'non-fictional' accounts such as, Darkness at Noon, Out of the Night, I Chose Freedom, and Witness. The Overton Window, by Glenn Beck is also advertised as a thriller. This blog would feature a book report if the blogger were not too tired (or lazy) to read the book anytime soon. (He will try.)

($14.99 at Costco)

The connection with Rudyard Kipling's Gods of the Copybook Heading is intriguing. There are interesting explanations of that poem at Literature Network Forums:
