There is a film version coming out on the true story that inspired MD.

If I enjoy Wuthering Heights half as much as the author's sister's classic novel, I will enjoy it very much. I'll be sure to peruse your review once I'm finished.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00466108789532345790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341752236357006509.post-76906925365716278642014-10-15T21:04:59.850-04:002014-10-15T21:04:59.850-04:00I see that you have Wuthering Heights coming up. ...I see that you have Wuthering Heights coming up. I can't wait to hear what you think about it. <br /><br />I quite liked Don Quixote. I'm reading Le Morte d'Arthur right now and I'm understanding better where the frantic, odd adventures come from.

I really liked it partly because of my experience working in taxonomy. The cetology chapters intrigued me. Starbuck is such a righteous man. It makes the end so much the more tragic. But Ishmael is my favorite. He is such a nerd! He tattooed the dimensions of a dead whale on his arm! You read some excellent books :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
