📝 This mode of mimesis is impressive due to what might be called its thoroughness. It is not a mode I fee inclined to write in myself, because the tediousness of it assures me that it would be tedious to construct it, and I have not had a realization as to why it is interesting or good to write this way. This is a separate matter from my interest in it as a reader.
