finished Aristole's Poetics, which was the reason i got this book. maybe I'll leave it in currently reading until i finish the rest of the selections or maybe I'll change it to finished to remind myself i completed Poetics.

had to return to library at chapter 10. was intriguing enough to want to pick up again at a later date though.

couldn't get into it
