Elective Affinities by Goethe

By W B Gooderham @wb_gooderham

To John,

With my thanks for finding me a short respite from the rigours of idleness, & in memory of those halcyon days, when we used to sit in the Macabre drinking absinthe in lime-green glasses etc. etc.

Actually I’m only writing this for the biographers.

From Anton.
