That which

A lot of Howard Jacobson's sentences are generalisations beginning "that which". For example, "That which strikes audiences as true because it is what they think already, elicits a whoop." Wodorabe (talk) 21:48, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.
