Reading: pp. 154-221 We’re back to the masquerade — that is, if we ever left. Hard to tell, that, especially when it all occurs in front of mirrors. Lots of mirrors in this week’s reading, especially when it comes to Otto. I wonder, as an aside, whether anybody will confess to (ever) being like him. Surely, ...2 weeks ago -
