Enjoyable, but finally realizing why it's taking me so very long to read. Immediatly following reference to Gillian Beer, Gopnik refers to "Middlemarch" (fictional work by George Eliot) as a "mirror of, or practical application of, 'The Origin'". This casual manner of name-dropping occurs throughout and is frustrating for one w/o Gopnik's breadth of knowledge.
