The inside front cover of David Markson’s copy of The Complete Greek Drama: Volume Two by Various (Ed. Whitney J. Oates & Eugene O’Neill, Jr.):

     On which Markson wrote as an inscription:
     “David M. Markson”

    Up until this month, I had barely touched Markson’s two volumes of The Complete Greek Drama because there was so much marginalia within both editions, I didn’t even know where to start. And I didn’t want to lean too heavily on using scans from these two books—after all, I could have made a whole blog using just the marginalia from them. I ended up barely using scans from these books in my first year and change of doing this blog, for fear of turning these into the blog’s lynchpin or fulcrum.

     As Markson once said:
     “Beware of Greeks bearing fulcrums.”
     – Springer’s Progress, pg. 38.

     And yet, here I am, now…
     After noticing I’ve barely used these books, I’ve dedicated a whole month to them.
