Bizarre! I'm really enjoying <i>Love in Excess</i> -- and I'm working on a Haywood paper of my own, though it's not conference-length. I might send my first proposal to ASECS this year for something else, though, so I'm sure it'll be my turn to be shouted down one of these days. Yay?

You are correct - I howled, howled I say, at the monkey scene in Evelina. That book can be so mischievous - that whole part with ... who is it, the captain maybe, is just ludicrous in all the best ways. Love in Excess is really good as well. I gave a conference paper on it a couple of years ago, wherein I addressed the problems of love and the law. Howard Weinbrot shouted me down during the q&a, and I went home feeling like a complete twit. Ha! You are correct - I howled, howled I say, at the monkey scene in Evelina.
