The net is rapidly turning into tohu and bohu 😦

Paul Lembersky from the life and times at UCB is here. Zhiv is alive in Russian, which I hope is true for all the parties concerned. Except for the sadly missing DC party. I have something I wanted to discuss with DS, but am still awaiting his response. A project dedicated to the memory of DC based on my novella. I’m here: lembersky10@gmail.com Would love to reconnect etc. All the best, Paul (Pavel) Lembersky, a fellow writer.

The similarities with Middlemarch was also on my mind and found your article searching for both. Another interesting parallel is to see Sonya’s monologue as an answer to the To be or not to be monologue, but it’s far from a satisfactory answer. 😉

Its so sad. Whenever l repeat the book l see reality and l feel like commiting suicide. ALTHOUGH, well done.

both educative and entertaining, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.
The problem is something which too few people are speaking intelligently about.
Now i’m very happy I stumbled across this in my search for something concerning this.
