What am I to fear and alter--my own nakedness or the grief of the reader?

It's fascinating, when you look at the critics' reviews, and we had a great one in the New York Observer and all that, and then the New York Times came and it was a devastation; two stars out of four.

“Everything I said he agreed with, which was trying, and his flute playing would make the deaf wince, but I think the real problem with Hyacinth was that he reminded me of myself. He read poetry.

Seeing him, I found it no wonder that my father despised me.”
