It is impossible to pleasantly combine basic economic principle with a murder-mystery novel. i.e., you absolutely can not describe anything and everything in terms of economics and expect to have birthed an enjoyable piece of literature.

Example:
"Conceptually he realized that an individual took his life when the discounted lifetime utility remaining

I know that big words are difficult for you to understand, but that doesn't mean that the material is automatically pretentious dreck.

Also, are you sure that you're not reading Dianetics?

I understand exactly what he's saying when he uses big words, I'm just not enjoying it, because all of the economics lectures are dry as fuck.

And it takes place in Harvard, so all of the characters are senior professors and spend their days being hoity-toity and scholarly all within the plot of a corny murder mystery novel.

Definitely not Dianetics.

Sowweeeee.

...I have to read French World War 1 literature. It's painful because there are so many characters that I can't keep them straight. But at least it's somewhat poetic.

I WANNA REED FARNCH WWI LIT!

That actually sounds like a lot of fun. If only I could remember French.

I thought it would be fun, too. WW1 is my favorite war. But it isn't very interesting yet.
And it's translated. I'm reading it for Western Civ.

[wings_for_marie]

My favorite war is WW2. Even though not as many people died in that one, it was still pretty good.
