I've read the first one... I am too like her (just, thank God, minus the overdraft. Which I can't actually have- a good thing really
)
Currently reading: Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller. I've developed a bit of a thing for plays at the moment (read The Glass Menagerie by Tennesse Williams before, which is REALLY amazing!)

Sharon's Osbourne's and Gabriel Garcia Marquez's autobiographies. More than a slight contrast between the two

Same here (although i read a view from the bridge a couple of years ago, it just happens to be in my copy of All My Son's as well) All My Sons is beautiful. I cannot wait to write about it in an exam for gods sake!

Quote: Citizen_Twiggy_
I did A View From The Bridge for year 10 English coursework and absolutely adored it. I completely forgot about it until recently though (I've been going through a plays/drama phase, though have only read Williams/Miller. Ahem...) and asked for it for Christmas- must be the same copy as yours as it had All My Sons in it- I completely agree that it's wonderful. I still slightly prefer AVFTB for sentimental reasons, but I still loved All My Sons- the description and the relationship and awww. I found it so much more emotional, touching and real than the one in Death Of A Salesman, too, and people go on about that being the ultimate father-son relationship. Ah well...
Did you find that those three plays all seem to end very similarly though? Not that that's a bad thing, as Miller is still amazing.
I'll stop now...

Gaz- we used to get Book People catalogues! God knows why we never ordered from them, actually, because they were damn cheap. Ah well...

Not that I'm desperate for something to do or anything.

Lolita by Viktor Nabokov. Again. The librarian must think I'm training to be a kiddie fiddler because I get it out every 4 months and she has to go to the back to get it. Honestly, I leave enough hints with my family that I want it for christmas and birthdays and they never pick up on them

I know there aren’t many people looking at this anymore… but I have made the decision to stop paying for the VR hosting and to let the domain lapse.
