The linked review is quite opionated-- given the amount of objective information related to this book, is this link acceptable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.219.104.215 (talk) 08:50, 6 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Characters edit

I added a list of characters. When I was reading the book I had to take notes to keep track of who the characters were. I found little helpful information on the web, so I thought it would be a worthwhile addition here. My source of information is the book itself. I hope that is one of the accepted Wikipedia uses of primary source material: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research#Primary.2C_secondary_and_tertiary_sources

I hope other people will improve the character information: adding details and making connections on which characters are based on which other ones between the Notebooks and Free Women.

My source for the identification of Saul Green with Clancy Sigal is Jim Burns, an English poet and critic (in a review of Sigal), but I'm sure there are others, more mainstream sources. The WP also says so, in the C. Sigal entry.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 19:40, 26 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
