A Smorgasbord of ‘Phantom’ Letters

If Sullivan is going to dislike a work so intensely, he might devote more effort to justifying his very personal feelings in a more mature, sophisticated manner, rather than taking cheap shots and using silly, sophomoric alliterations. If there is bad theater, we’d like to hear about it, but The Times is no place for a bad writer.
