Michaelmas term lately over, and the Lord Chancellor sitting in Lincoln’s Inn Hall

1. None of the significant references in that sentence have any relationship to the experience of young adults in Kansas.

2. The phrase "lately over" would be struck by any 21st century American editor.

The author calling the prose "a masterpiece" reflects a huge pile of cultural assumptions about literary quality.
