| 2009-11-01 | Mike | 10 | 9 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you, Garrett Z. I will pay particular attention to the characters Deasy and Haines as I read. Yes, I assume Joyce was being deliberate with his non-capitalization, making a point probably related to the prevalent anti-Semitism of the times. As for myself, as a sort-of Jew, I do not hold it against Joyce, whose motives and means and skills will forever be obscure and wondrous to me. Thanks again. |

| 2008-02-21 | Indraraj | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | The way in which you put before me the art of reading and understanding "Don Quixote" is quite a remarkable example. No professor, teaching literature, from my college ever told us to read this particular novel in three stages; but this is something to acknowledge and I will surely follow your advice, Sir. Thanks... Raj |
