This is fantastic, Graley! I couldn't help by think of the young typist from "The Waste Land" or the woman in Adrienne Rich's "Living in Sin" as I was reading your brilliant analysis. In addition to the daemon lover, there resonances of Wini Breines, "Young, White, and Miserable: Growing Up Female in the Fifties" throughout your analysis. I look forward to seeing you in Tulsa to talk more about this and many other things.

Nice allusion to Easter, 1916. :-)

Tremendous stuff, Graley. So well researched and clearly argued. You have also - again - added to my to be read list which I have put a huge dent in the last year, but which is growing apace again.

These Daemon Lover pieces are top rate writing, thanks for them.
