I like to think of myself as reasonably well educated and I don't mind an occasional challenge but what point is Galen Strawson trying to make in his Saul Bellow review with "prosopagnosia" and "cataphatic"? (Review, 10 August). Neither of these words appears in my edition of Chambers (so neither would be allowed at Scrabble). An intelligent, stimulating review was ruined for me by this ostentatious display.
