"Dip him in the river who loves water" - translated for sentence watchers : "Read Ulysses"
Addendum: Bach's musical sentences are even more inspiring than Joyce's prosody, try the rhetoric of the cello suites, for instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbH3JYfRjOQ - (this is a good recording, especially the gigue, (also try this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6A8NYdsynAs ) but in general Bach suffers more than any other composer from dodgy performances. Chopin is much safer.)
Please, DrStormyDaniels, more comments from you! A different and original and informed voice indeed!
A paragraph can be crafted to have a centrepiece. That's not something I'd considered before so I'll be keeping an eye out. Could be a sentence, a word, or a punctuation mark; whatever's needed to make it linger.
And, true to form in any writing about writing, just when you think it's about to be too late, the author finds a way to abuse the language in exactly the way they're commenting on.
Some simple but enjoyable insights.
