“From 'The Book of My Enemy Has Been Remaindered'
Soon now a book of mine could be remaindered also,
Though not to the monumental extent

To a miscalculated print run, a marketing error -
Nothing to do with merit.”

Clive James (1939–2019) Australian author, critic, broadcaster, poet, translator and memoirist

And the sentence that condemns or acquits is not simply a judgement of guily, a legal decision that lays down punishment; it bears within it an assessment of normality and a technical prescription for a possible normalization Today the judge- magistrate or juror0 certainly does more than 'judge”
