The publishing biz has gotten much, much slower. My husband sold his first novels in 1978. Everything was faster: editorial responses (across the board!), the time for the creation of first copy-edited MSS and then unrproofed galleys, the time between galleys and publication, and yes, of course, payment. (rueful laugh)
I agree, it's a classicist's joke (for my doctoral exams, I did a minor in classics). But I can't get over the coincidence of that title and the timing.
