An eye catching read indeed.
I could not stop commenting on the use of word "circa".
In my field and as far as I know, the word is used either for the range of time or if specific year is used , for the year that passed long ago, like "circa 1900", "Circa 1950" or even "circa 1980", It is my underrstanding that people dont use "circa" for recent time.
PS. I am neither english major/minor nor a literature expert.Comment is based on use of the word in my field and my understanding only.
