From this presumably comprehensive tabulation Maurice’s nephew could deduce very little. Zachary could not say whether his uncle had been a happy bugger or a driven, persecuted and paranoid erotomane – all he could tell was that his uncle had observed the same principle in his sexual practice as he had in his life generally: never too much of any one thing.
Maurice’ Neffe konnte dieser mutmaßlich vollständigen Aufstellung nur wenig entnehmen, Zachary hätte vor allem nicht sagen können, ob sein Onkel ein glücklicher Mann gewesen war oder ein verfolgter, paranoider Erotomane – er erfuhr nur, dass sein Onkel in sexuellen Dingen dasselbe Prinzip der Abwechslung walten ließ wie im restlichen Leben.
