Starting something you couldn't finishFinnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

There's a famous bitin Middlemarch where she talks about how the novel is like an experiment, with the author/reader observing what's happening in peoples' lives.
Trouble is, you don't really want to be the one sitting in a lab, staring down the microscope.
I read Daniel Deronda, and liked that, but it is a bit madder than Middlemarch. Felix Holt I felt the same way as you about.
