My word, this is an extraordinary document. If you're at all interested in literature and/or a participant in its creation, I can't imagine you won't find much of value here. I mean: Wow.

It's remarkable. No one could have less time for the Church of Rome than I have, but I'm very glad to have read this. Thanks for sharing it.

I second that "Wow." What a beautiful essay, and what a testament to the power of stories to enrich us.

“Literature is life, conscious of itself, that reaches its full self-expression through the use of all the conceptual resources of language”👀 Powerful statement , we bring it alive in mind>text>minds. Hence maybe anyone who reads this should cause some level of metacognitive awareness perhaps.🤔
