We read excerpts of this. It was...uh....interesting to say the least.
I should read this someday too.
To be honest, I read this so fast I barely remember any of it. I remember it was fairly enjoyable but I also remember I read this on a day where we only had an hour to read five things so to say I was rushed is an understatement.
Thank you, Pope, for writing a parody in prose. When one studies English literature from Chaucer through Eliot, one really appreciates a humorous poem. The world needs more.
