[close reading] A second class on Ephraim: what it would mean to believe or disbelieve in Ephraim. How the Ouija board works: the desire both to make it say what you want it to say and to disbelieve that you're doing that. Writing as interpretation; interpretation as writing. Quotation from Middlemarch on the candle picking out a perfect circle in the mirror: mirrors in Ephraim, thought, wish fulfillment.
