"In some ways reading is becoming a status thing (oh I read the new sally rooney book) rather than a critical thing."
i've had a prejudice against reading and people who read for a while because of exactly this. reading your analysis helps me remember the true reason why i want to read in the first place: to understand and learn. i loved this piece. can't wait for the review!
You articulated a lot of things I noticed in my reading of Intermezzo in a way I never would have been able to put into words. I look forward to reading your thoughts on Wittgenstein.
