4.0

I read the short story "A Responsibility" by Harland in this volume. I thoroughly enjoyed the piece especially the language. I found his scientific prose to be an interesting take on understanding people, and became interested in the subtle use of scientific observation and physiognomy displayed in the story. Since it was published in the Yellow Book, the homosexual undertones become much more overt. Overall an easy and lovely read.
