Benjamin's writing flows so freely that I have to slow down and reread passages to even attempt to understand them. I'm having a lot of fun reading whole paragraphs out loud.

I hope that Benjamin would approve of the translation. If The Task of the Translator is any indication, he definitely would have an opinion. (Also, I need to read Kafka, Leskov, and Proust – and Baudelaire again.)
