If this be Global Warming then so be it. I quite like it. Been reading fun stuff lately: Fitzgerald's/Khayyam's Rubaiyat; biographical matter on both of our authors, so like one another in their suggestive (I hear the ringing of antique symbols) Epicureanism, so unlike in their worldly fortunes. I love 'em both. I especially like Fitzgerald for saying that he was glad Elizabeth Barrett-Browning was dead: "At least we shall have no more 'Aurora Leigh's...." So I looked up 'Aurora Leigh' and found that it is indeed, apparently (for I have not read it, and am not likely to) a precious work of proto-feminism, "as if 'Pride and Prejudice' had been written by Shakespeare," and longer in its blank verses than 'Paradise Lost.' Whoa.
