Fair are the daughters of men, and fairest are those who read. Is there any creature more desirable than a damsel in intellectual distress?
James Morrow in his new novel The Philosopher’s Apprentice P.171-2

“Is there any creature more desirable than a damsel in intellectual distress?…”
Yes. There is. It is a damsel who thinks you are an intellectual and in distress.
. Intellectual distress or not, Morrow would do well to remember that a damsel can only be desirable only if she is ‘Desirable’. By the way, the novel’s premise sounds very interesting (I read an excerpt as well as the synopsis). Did you read it in full?

You write above: Did you read it in full?
About 70% done. Interesting so far.
