Re: Childermass' memory?

[(Anonymous)]

No, it's not mentioned, but you are correct that his recall is very good. Towards the end, Norrell asks him, 'quick, name a spell that doesn't work!' and he rattles off like 4 off the top of his head.

Presumably, he is the only character who is able to listen to Norrell's tedious long explanations of all things magical...and he actually remembers what was said!
