Carlos Zambrano’s doctors say his arm cramps are simply a result of low potassium levels. Now I love baseball, but could we please have some REAL injuries? “Low potassium levels” is about as weak as Josh Beckett being benched because of a blister on his finger. In football people have their shins split in half.
Separate point: Classic/smarty-pants books should NOT have essays by professors as introductions. They’re boring and stodgy and alienating. They also tend to contain massive spoilers. If you want those essays at all (to give the book context, to explain its impact) then put it at the end as an epilogue. I’m reading Sinclair Lewis’ 1935 novel It Can’t Happen Here and then smarty pants intro gives away much of the end of the book!
Separate point again: I read smarty-pants books and am therefore fascinating.

None of my books have this problem. You should read them instead.
