What an interesting chapter wouldn't you say? Highly explosive commentary on the antics of Tom and Mary. And Great intertextual references. OH! And the MICROCOSMS! My god, they're fabulous!

What would everyone else say?

i cheated... without knowing it

Imagine if this chapter,if you pardon the pun, popped up in the exam!

But yes, I agree, highly explosive and great-reading, even if the descriptions are at time a little too graphic for one's liking.

Yeah, those microcosms were pretty wild, eh?

Swift's language are amazing, I love how he links everything together, all his different themes and plot strands tie in in ways I would never have expected.
