Daily Consumption 3-24-10

Song of the day - Sweet Disposition, The Temper Trap

Passage of the day - Austen's ultimate irony is that Elizabeth Bennet is inwardly so free that convention performs for her the ideal function it cannot perform for us: it liberates her will without tending to stifle her high individuality. - Novels and Novelists, Bloom's Literary Criticism 20th Anniversary Collection,
Harold Bloom on Jane Austen
