Lick My Crit: On Modern Romance
Every generation, there is but one great work that not only redefines literature and the artistic endeavor, but also changes how we as humans perceive and relate to the world that surrounds us. The landscape has not changed, nor has the model upon which the human heart is based-and, as such, this, for our time and times after, remains Lauren Conrad’s seminal touchstone LA Candy.
This LICK MY CRIT, however, is about a work discussing triumph over adversity through a story of one young girl alone against the world-a young girl very, very much like the aforementioned Ms. Conrad, or perhaps even like a young girl we all know-nay, this young girl is THE young girl, the platonic form of female adolescence made transcendent.
