I want to ask who here has read John Milton. He is my favorite writer. And is there any connection between the way Milton Writes and the way John Fowles. or is there any writer who has ever embraced Miltns style? Personally i have deciphered Lycidas a couple thousand times and each time i find new meanings and wonders... Perhaps this is trival--but i'm reading paradise regained again, andd i find that the metophors are not as majestic as they were in Paradise Lost. Me thinks me saw me ex espose saint!!!
