Abram
Abram is on page 75 of 783
Without being too overtly traditional, one does wonder why a society in possession of several proven traditions that say “hey don’t be a gluttonous lecher” would then produce Internal Thoughts of the Gluttonous Lecher, Parts 1-900.

I’m not saying they can’t or shouldn’t, I’m just asking why they WOULD.

message 1: by Michael (new)

Michael Mortenson lol. But… it’s a classic! (I gave up last time I tried reading it on like chapter 4.)


message 2: by Abram (new) - added it

Abram I can only assume that there’s some historical reason it’s a “classic”, and I have to assume it’s the vein of Irish nationalism that runs throughout, and so at least it’s a little funny because I have never read any book that displayed the Irish in this negative a light.
