it has a lot of the charm of the original, and then the additional charm of zombies LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 25/04/2012 11:36:55 PM

Oh, come on. Jane Eyre is a great book. Legolas - 26/04/2012 08:42:17 PM 1293 Views
Hated Wuthering Heights. (but not as much as I hate Rochester of course) Vivien - 26/04/2012 09:31:13 PM 1316 Views

Could someone explain to me why Jane Austen's prose is considered good? Dan - 27/04/2012 12:24:00 AM 1475 Views
I don't like her prose, but I like the dialogue LadyLorraine - 27/04/2012 01:55:50 AM 1370 Views
You're not alone. ironclad - 27/04/2012 01:16:12 PM 1504 Views
I agree with what others have said nossy - 27/04/2012 02:30:31 PM 1318 Views
Dialogue, wit, characters. The plot and descriptive prose are merely functional, true. Legolas - 27/04/2012 11:26:27 PM 1213 Views
The dialogue, wit, and characters I am not puzzled about. Dan - 28/04/2012 03:17:37 AM 1366 Views
