Of course one must overlook it, for the sake of the story.It happens in other situations also; when foreign writers wrongly ascribe some attraction in Edinburgh,I am momentaily disturbed...but overlook it in pursuit of the tale to be told.

I have to admit as a general rule I think I stop reading if a text contains grossly inaccurate information the exception is probably a classic text or a novel where the prose is simply sublime. But gross inaccuracies make me want to throw a book across the room. Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824748902803492123noreply@blogger.com
