Dear Mame's
I am so sorry to show my ignorance,
please could you tell me what this word; "diptych," means.
Good question, Nigel. Diptych's in art are two matching panel paintings whose subjects enforce each other. The combination of the two paintings (or photos in a frame) are better together than apart, since the themes are related.
Laurel Ann's and Ellen Moody's reviews of Sense and Sensibility are two halves of a whole. Viewed together, you receive a more complete picture of the book than apart.
Cool!
Thanks so much.
