User reviews

LibraryThing member sashame
good breakdown of the palimpsestual nature of the text, but he does little to historically situate the layers, and the book is rendered difficult to use by the haphazard and unnecessarily disjointed organization of the various texts, commentaries, footnotes, etc.
