Feels like it'd be more interesting in some other medium.
I hardly survived the heresy and chaos of this work.
Some things are questionable in translation and for I don't speak French - I am supposed to blame the translators and editors for making a lousy job...unless the essay itself is utter nonsense.
I did find a couple of good ideas though, it resonates a lot practically with everyone as it manages to describe you and no one at the same time.
Oh, and I came for the quote, the one about that scatterbrained woman and her patron cursed by boredom. I am still finding this short piece remarkable.
