Laura: Have you ever read Barthes?
Jeff: no, not really, I hate French philosophers
Paul: c'mon Jeff, you're always so proud of your ignorance
Jeff: I just think they are unreadable
Laura: maybe a fault of translations
Tommy: No, French versions are equally difficult
Jeff: exactly, so everybody has an opinion about them, especially about the postmodernists, but they are just theories because nobody is sure what it is all about after all
Laura: hahahaha
Jeff hasn't read Barthes. Tommy says the French versions are difficult as well.
