I think we agree in some parts... Written by Pennie (9/21/2006 3:02 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, I'm not sure I follow you, penned by Tracy W

... in particular with what you say about 'A person can be good-hearted and generous and yet not particularly knowledgable about music or art, or a deep moral thinker. '

As for the passage being filtered through Marianne's perspective, I have no evidence to offer, only a gut feeling. JA is good at letting her characters cloud the perspective of the supposedly neutral omniscient narrator. We shall have to agree to disagree
