    “Did you possess me, or I you, my Heart’s Beloved, as we sat there together on Thursday and Friday—as we held each other close, as we kissed.” Another letter to the same woman closed with equal rapture: “My true lover, my true love, see, I am your true lover, your true love.”

    What beautiful, romantic nonsense smile Some truly great stuff in this article! Especially the 'lamenting' of divides between heterosexual and homosexual. That sort of ambiguity is definitely FL-esque.
