That’s a brilliant idea. I only saw the romanticised interpretation in the novel.

Admittedly I produce a violin and play 4’33 at my students but it’s absolutely intended to produce the mortification that results.

Superb. Presumably they made him leave the bow and arrows in a locker.

Ah yes, I had one of those. Gave out the script of his lecture then read it out very slowly. Pointless.

Sequel to The Time Traveler’s Wife to be published this autumn
Audrey Niffenegger’s follow-up to her global bestseller focuses on Alba, the daughter of Henry and Clare, as she negotiates two marriages and various modern-era dystopias
The Time-Traveller’s Mistress? The Time-Traveller’s Second Wife?
Didn’t see the first film but hated the novel. Something very creepy about an adult repeatedly appearing to a child announcing that they’ll be lovers at some point in her future.

Because it was to hand or is there a coded satirical message in there?

Mind-boggling. Mind you, when I visited UCD in 1992 to check out a course someone was playing the trumpet in the back row of a lecture hall. The prof carried on regardless.

I still have the opposition’s flyers from his time as NUS president. They’d spotted him as a values-free sell-out even then.
