Basically read this over again in interests of class paper (delivered yesterday). Got much more out of it this time round, though still am not sure I like it all that much. Class discussion not bad, though didn't deliver me to new heights of insight either (though it would have had I not been thinking about the text reasonably intensively during the hours immediately before class)...I was happy that a fair bit of the discussion was haunted by my hand-waving in the direction of a so-called 'metaphysics of absence', too!
