Bad roommate?
Ever had to live with someone you just didn't like?
Well . . .
Yours truly kinda finds himself in that position as he pores over the Harney letters mentioned in the previous post.
See, when you write about another human being, its a lot like he (or she) moves-in with you for the duration of the project. At least, that's been my experience this time around. You go to bed thinking about the subject, and you wake up thinking about him or her. They're always around.
It helps if you like theperson.
But, the more I read of Harney's writings, the more I find he's not exactly pedestal material.
Guess that just makes him human?
