When I read the line where one of Harker’s coach companions quotes from “Lenore”: “Denn die Todten reiten schnell”(”For the dead travel fast.”)– I was transported back to Gately’s hospital room with the Wraith (and his ilk) zipping around at speeds invisible to the human eye. Did Wallace have an endnote citing to this line in the poem or am I: (1)just making that up because of the proximity of the reads or (2) under some sort of spell cast by DFW and/or Dracula and/or JOI zipping around my room planting connections (and heretofore unknown foreign poetry) in my head?

Reading IJ was such a fantastic way to begin this community; I’m thrilled to be continuing! Someone deserves a prize for creating/sustaining Infinite Summer … Barbara

I’m in. But between my Dad passing last week and being away for a few days this week (and forgetting my copy of the book at home–d’oh!) it may take me a few days to catch up. I have read this book before, but I am looking forward to reading it again and to seeing what other people have to say about the book. I’m not an English major, so I couldn’t come up with a cogent comment if you threatened me with a 2×4, but I’ll do the best I can.

Either you were already doing this and I missed it, or you just put it up, but either way, thanks Matthew! That “Milestones” section is great.
