I am distressed to sense a cartain drift, in conjecture about his
knowing the forks, towards ascertaining something like the "right"
reading, i.e., the truth about him, the forks-knower -- as his knowing
of them figures in the "whole picture [to be perceived by the WHOLE work
in which he is more or less convincingly characterized]."
The resting place of such a drift is the way that drab sanity lies.
Whether the whole book fleshes him out as a dining-room Fauntleroy or
as a Machiavelli with no time to waste on anybody's vision thing -- that
is the RELEVANT sort of knowledge that I hope we can avoid for at least
a while. Much better simply and ignorantly to be appalled, as I want
to be, by the obtuseness of the table-ware set.

Hello,
I frequently need to locate used, out-of-print books.
Does anyone know of a directory of used book dealers?
