THOUGHTS: More on Symonds

This Wikipedia article explains why Kinbote, at least, might have admired
J.A. Symonds.

I wonder how much concerning Symonds' own habits would have been known to
VN. Since my last post, I realized that Sexual Inversion became the first
part of Havelock Ellis's Psychology of Sex, which VN said he read in
preparation for writing Lolita.
