That’s what I’m talking about right there! Hell yeah!
I’m reading Beowulf, the Seamus Heaney translation; the one in archaic English is barely intelligible to me.
But Erik, you failed to say what exactly you’re talking about.
By the way, I’m enjoying the audiobooks. I’m pretty good at [arguing] but not disciplined nor have the knowledge to present a good argument et cetera and being that I am not that knowledgeable in the first place as most here are, I need all the help which I can muster. I would call myself more the “dabbler”.
I’m so looking forward to continuing with it.
