there is something about how anne carson manages the very long poem that i will be pondering and studying for a very long time. obviously, gorgeous, knife-like. relentlessly absurd, which here leads to insight.

so much wow! last essay left so much to think about.
The only un-wow was TV Men, probably on account of personal preferences. Fall of Rome reads lightly, but in the right mood it would destroy.

It was definitely a good idea to read this while I'm still reading Wuthering Heights.

Contains my favourite poem/essay of all time and is pretty much brain-stretching brilliance throughout.
