69 minute read.
That is not nice.
Reminds me of the poetic reaction to the epic poem (1400+ lines) about May by Herman Gorter. In reaction to this Hendrik de Vries wrote: (Loosely translated, with the ABBBA rhyme scheme destroyed, im sorry)
"Gorter, Gorter!
I wanted to read your Maycanto
But soon I was afraid
That I, before I died, would not be able to finish it.
Shorter! Shorter! Shorter!"
OG in Dutch: "Gorter, Gorter!
'k Heb uw Meizang willen lezen
Maar begon al gauw te vrezen
Dat het, voor mijn dood, niet uit zou wezen.
Korter! Korter! Korter!"
Not that relevant, but I always thought it was a fun story, and it is a nice piece of poetic shade thrown.
