So I'm reading pic related, and am only 15 pages in, but he says this:
"Sometimes he stood in the center of the quad, looking at the five huge columns in front of Jesse Hall that thrust upward into the night out of the cool grass; he had learned that these columns were the remains of the original main building of the University, destroyed many years ago by fire. Grayish silver in the moonlight, bare and pure, they seemed to him to represent the way of life he had embraced, as a temple represents a god."
So I'm just wondering why these columns represent that for him, and whether it's completely narcissistic to think himself comparable to a god...?

The columns represent academia and the university. He's not the god, learning is.

You should re-read the quote and feel bad for what you've done.

Read a little longer before posting next time, m8. See if you can wait till you finish the whole book next time! It's tough I know. What I do is write down my thoughts and questions on a private notepad and when I finish I think about everything and decide what is actually worth discussing. Sometimes nothing at all!
