THE DECLINE AND FALL OF THE AMERICAN NATION:


FRAGMENT III—"MY INTELLECTUAL LIFE, PART ONE"




FOOTNOTE 5

So intense an impression of malaise and emptiness makes it almost impossible not to imagine Larsen in his Actaeon office as he writes. For the atmosphere of that office, see Part I of the" Diary" and also "A Note on the Condition of the Papers" in the Editor's Foreword. And of course see also p. 2669 of this present piece, "Fragment III" ("My Intellectual Life"), and notes 16 and 17 there.[Editor]
