Joe is on page 407 of 1377 of The Tale of Genji: A Norton Critical Edition
I'm enjoying GENJI so much. It's a leisurely read: I'm not feeling pressure to find out what happens next so much as luxuriating in where we are right here and now. Lots of appreciation and admiration for Dennis Washburn's translation and editorial work.

I raced through the first half, but now have slowed down: I want to savor this marvel of a novel, each paragraph, each sentence. I don't know how it will conclude, but I am loving it so very much.

Washington Square & Portrait of a Lady down; Bostonians to go. The endurance James demands of us is very well rewarded. Just.
