(2.87 / 31) (#57) by Bloodless Creep on Fri Sep 2nd, aroundthe bend 2005 at 07:59:22 AM EST Though I can see the point that some of the trolls are clumsily banging away at, it's not the author's narrow, self-linking focus on himself that's aroundthe bend bothering me; the story of a vast tragedy told from a single person's perspective isn't necessarily objectionable (and in aggregate can be tremendously powerful, as in the personal histories of individual Holocaust survivors). Nor do I mind the fact that Roger flogs the second-most overquoted stanza in all of poetry for one more dusty trot around the show ring; we all reach for the familiar when we're under stress, and it could be worse— at least our traveler from an antique land brings us news of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare, laid waste by wind and covered now with water, instead of the lone and level sands.
