Well, we will need a lot of time. We can do it or not but
we can't do it quick. The quick is that I disagree with
your reading because I don't think that the text(s) (and particularly,
a reading of the texts that come before and after the Novel V.)
support your argument that identifies the author's POV
with Fausto(s).
It's triathlon season again and I've spent way to much time
sitting on my trainer reading and not enough time in the
pool. Did the Montauk, but if I want to be ready for the
sept Hampton I have to get behind the mule and plow.
Sorry, sicerly Thomas, my comments about cooking with gas
were not meant to be condescending.
Again, I suggest Eddins on V and Fausto.
My reading his very close to his, but of course I
have two additional novels to add to it.
