hahahaa that's a sweet phrase
and srsly WTF. that's so lame.
i read heart of darkness in high school, well, pretended to read it. i didn't like it but i did well on the tests.. the guy's points were a little obvious. maybe to the point of being ham-handed.
i know what you mean, i'd prolly have gotten through it if i hadn't HAD to keep checking the endnotes. if they'd been footnotes, at the bottom of the page, it would have made so much more sense
i have no idea why the editor/publisher did that to the readers. just cruel.
