BDSL,1- Genetic Therapy for Inherent Vice

[bandwraith at aol.com]

I think it's still pretty foggy. How does "the text" take "that"
into account, in either book? Needs some explaining. The
desire to cure, and the evolving means to to effect a cure, are
also inherited. A- and who's doing the enduring? And when
the latest "cure" becomes available, who gets access?

but isn't it pretty clear the text takes that into account in both 
books?

"what can't be cured, sure, must be endured, sure" (Joyce, in Portrait, 
right?)

also that Sailing to Byzantium has something about that too, doesn't
it? (not the famous part, the ragged cloak and so forth, but one of
the lines nobody remembers...)
