Good morning,

I have a quotation I'm trying to track down, losing my mind in the process, so I thought I would consult the vast composite brain of the Woolf listserv. Does this ring a bell with anyone?

"The thrill of finding an allusion, of locating the precise source of a teasing echo, of suddenly catching an obscure pun or seeing what should have been an obvious joke makes the reader alert, curious, eager to find new puzzles to solve."

 

Many thanks,

Kristin
