I hit p. 500 this am. Perhaps the fact that I have been reading--very--
slowly has prevented the disappointments y'all are expressing.
Kind of rereading it as I read, w/ lotsa loops back into it. Has been a
most satisfying ride, and I am really sorry it's ending (though by no
means is the end in sight yet). I regret that my terrapin mode of reading
has prevented me from taking part in the excellent MDMD, but I guess it's the
price for allowing myself a deep rich read.
