Booksellers

I have put the link to the French Amazon site in for the readers' convenience. While there may be other booksellers who have these books readily available, the French Amazon site is easy and convenient. I see no harm in it and a little good. What is the problem with having it?

POV

The uses of words like "lofty" (which has "pompous" and "arrogant" as connotations) or "lavish" are, in my opinion out of place. Even worse is something like "he is nonetheless often lampooned as the archetypal pretentious". Levy is a controversial figure and the article, as it is now, does illustrate very well the polarization that his image creates--it does, however, sound quite informal and opinionated, which come out--again, in my opinion, as biased. I think the article lacks references (e.g. by whom is he "often lampooned as the archetypal pretentious Left Bank intellectual"?) and need to be seroiusly reworded. I do not, however, that the neutrality of the article is terrible--thus i left the POV tag on this talk page and not in the actual article page.
