Yes, I vaguely remember hearing something about Kenton Stone, so I looked around and found his one and only book, fallen within the category of literary criticism, analyzing some boring Uruguayan author, the country where he lived for a number of years. I only remember him from when I was 8 years old, so it is sort of annoying to be mistaken for his little sister, who has no choice of brotherhood. She is stuck with that, whereas I can more or less explain how I do not remember those people either. How dare they pretend to attend my high school in El Salvador, leveraging their distant cousin Anita Stone, who I remember as a pompous arrogant snob. It is not like Stone is ever going to have any other place in my life. And he is not even properly Spanish, when that is only his Spanish language, not really his cause, only observed from the viewpoint of a native English speaker, as someone online was saying. So you may have your Ph.D. in Spanish and yet not be widely accepted due to an obsessive preoccupation with your own personal idiosyncrasies and beer bottle parasites.
Oh, did I read somewhere that he received a grant to help fund his writing? But then if he bombs it will not be so easy the next time around to get any grant funding for just another boring mishmash of whatever Spanish literature. Technology has progressed greatly in 200 years.
