Our overworked promotions department has finally heated up the boilerplate to complete this handy reviewer’s guide to Expect Resistance. This belated tutorial offers points of departure for readers and would-be reviewers alike, and presents a contest for the particularly assiduous.

In case any intrepid reviewers require additional assistance, we’ve added a new feature to our reading library: “The Fine Art of Criticism: A How-To Guide for Aspiring Journalists.” This controversial screed originally appeared in the third issue of Rolling Thunder, and remains as relevant today as it was then—however relevant that is.

Tune in next time for the follow-up, “A User’s Guide to Expect Resistance,” a preview of which is pictured above.
