Hardy and Ibsen

Paul Binding on connections between the two, at the TLS. In general I feel I have the perfect job but my one regret about being an academic is that I can't very often throw over the traces & read intensively and waywardly for a month here or there--not pleasure reading, more intellectual-exploration reading--I was drooling as I read this piece with the thought of how much I would like to delve into Hardy and Ibsen, and I am still feeling a Beckett itch that is not going to get scratched any time soon....
