Exclusive: Bush and Kerry love the Ibsen

If anyone like me was stupid enough to stay up through the US Election they would have seen an American Political Commentator with a rubbish haircut say on BBC television that the Presidential Race was "unfolding like one of Ibsen's well-made plays" (well, it was interesting to me at half two in the morning)

Now, I'm not so sure if this 'expert' had actually grasped the nuances of Ibsen's dramatic objectives in subverting the well-made play, or indeed if he had even the most basic of knowledge about Victorien Sardou and his fabulous writings!....
However….his idea made me think of all the fun times we have had studying modernism with Geraldine Cousins…

...And anything that makes me think of Gerry late at night while Im in bed can only be a good thing!

She loves the cock
