"i last read this eleven years ago, in spring of 2013, and decided that I hated jane austen’s writing, it was boring and opaque and overly flowery and the characters were indistinguishable from one another. coming to realise that i’m genuinely enjoying reading it second time around was a shock and also proof that my brain hadn’t fully developed if i thought this was a really difficult read" — Apr 25, 2024 01:44PM

“Yet Byron never made tea as you do, who fill the pot so that when you put the lid on the tea spills over. There is a brown pool on the table--it is running among your books and papers. Now you mop it up, clumsily, with your pocket-hankerchief. You then stuff your hankerchief back into your pocket--that is not Byron; that is so essentially you that if I think of you in twenty years' time, when we are both famous, gouty and intolerable, it will be by that scene: and if you are dead, I shall weep.”
