    You know that scene in Fiddler on the Roof...

Never seen it

    Does that make sense?

Sort of, I don't really give a toss about symbolism in literature, as long as it is ignorable in favor of the story. Word from another friend is that the book included more political commentary than the movie, which I am okay with. From the above, I'll probably make a hesitant foray into the book, but only because audible will let me return it unfinished for free.
