You have that in common with Graham Greene, among others, I'm certain! I remember reading his quoting a letter from a reader, pointing out an element in one of his novels to which he'd been oblivious. Art transcends, it's obvious, even the medium.

Going off on a tangent, but it's why I don't much care what an author/artist meant. The work must speak for itself.
