Don't beat yourself up over it too much. The structure of narrative form is something Clojure inherits from the Lisp tradition. All essays about Clojure must either be a narrative in which "a man goes on a journey" or one in which "a stranger comes to town." [1] Yours, being the first type is just an old-fashioned love song to Lisp. [2] The other narrative form produces rants about s-expression syntax - though now that we have Python, praise of the semicolon is no longer a given.[3] [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1213770 [2] e.g. RPG's www.dreamsongs.com [3] Such essays, lacking condescension, may be said to fail to comprehend the essence of Lisp. |
