I'll be glad to take this review; haven't read this particular one, but I've got more of a background in Barth than most reviewers likely to come along. Initial comments to follow in the next 1-3 days. As always, thanks in advance for your work on this one. -- Khazar2 (talk) 17:52, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Initial comments
There's been some mistake here--I thought I was reviewing this, but it's all about some crazy book from the 1960s instead?

Anyway, this looks like your usual solid work--thanks for the effort you've put into it. A few quibbles are below. -- Khazar2 (talk) 13:58, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

 * "Appleton, Century Crofts" is punctuated differently at its article-- is this punctuation also correct?
 * Fixed. A scan of the title page at AbeBooks says that Appleton—Century—Croft is the correct pronunciation. Curly Turkey (gobble) 00:12, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, I'm not sure if those should be emdashes or endashes. They sure don't look like regular dashes to me.  Curly Turkey (gobble) 00:21, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I also think endashes would look more natural here, but I have no strong preferences. Dash types doesn't seem like a GA-level issue of grammatical correctness, so either's good for me for review purposes. To get a more exact area you might post at whatever MOS talk page is connected to WP:HYPHEN. -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:24, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * "Jake feels himself bound into inaction "by the serpents Knowledge and Imagination, which ... no longer tempt but annihilate"." Sentence with quotation should be followed immediately by inline citation (I assume it's the one at the end of the para)?
 * Done. I can't get access right now to some of the sources, so I couldn't just copy-&-paste the citation.  Curly Turkey (gobble) 23:39, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * "the parties involved be able to take each other seriously" -- should be followed by citation
 * Done. Curly Turkey (gobble) 23:39, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * The Sartre image seems to not be public domain in the US (at least, it needs a tag as it is), so probably isn't fair game for a tangential connection like this.
 * Gone. Curly Turkey (gobble) 00:12, 23 June 2013 (UTC)


 * I've added another image, one of a Morgan horse. I suppose it's best to check it.  Curly Turkey (gobble) 23:50, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * And now I've gone and added an image of Jonathan Lethem. Curly Turkey (gobble) 23:54, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, and now a map of Wicomico County, Maryland. Curly Turkey (gobble) 00:00, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, guess I was a little quick on the trigger with that pass. These additions are fine, though. -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:06, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
