Imagine an illiterate joining a book club made up of other illiterate members.  They never really participate beyond spending all afternoon observing others pretending to read.  Finally, no matter what book is the focus of that particular meeting, the discussion is always about those two books they absolutely abhor the most.  Ironically, the author of one of those books they despise the most pays for most of their refreshments.
