Vocabulary
it might be pulled altogether
1. What do the highlighted sentences mean?
2. "though" here means "although", yes? If so could you please specify the A and B sections of the standard "although A , B" structure here? I think:
A= by no means entirely detached from the situation, with the controversy having gone through several stages and the project as a whole looking time and again as though it might be pulled altogether
B= Whiteread did reach the point where she simply left matters to run their own course come what may
Am I right?
Context:
Though by no means entirely detached from the situation, with the controversy having gone through several stages and the project as a whole looking time and again as though it might be pulled altogether, Whiteread did reach the point where she simply left matters to run their own course come what may.
