In case nobody else remembered, yesterday, June 16th, was Bloomsday, so I went home and listened to "The Sensual World" and "My Lagan Love" (which isn't based on Ulysses, but on something else by Joyce.) I enjoyed the posting with all the quotes Kate has said over the years regarding her writing "Wuthering Heights". I could go back and look, but I could have sworn I read somewhere her saying that when she first wrote the song, she hadn't read the book, but knew the story and had seen part of it on TV. Some of those quotes posted, tho, indicate that she had read the book first. - Douglas MacGowan
