New on The Hyperliterature Exchange for May 2008: a review of 'Le 
Reprobateur/The Reprover' by Francois Coulon.
 
"The central conceit of Le Reprobateur is the profession of Reprobateurs 
or Reprovers, whose practitioners hire themselves out to act as external 
consciences for their weaker-willed clients. They stand alongside those 
clients throughout their daily lives and silently disapprove of any 
immoral or self-indulgent behaviour on their part, thereby helping them 
to lose weight, stop overspending, work harder, keep their tempers, and 
so forth... Le Reprobateur... exudes selfconfidence, playfulness and 
humour; it attempts to do a lot of things at once, and by and large it 
succeeds in everything it attempts..."
