Re: Fact not fiction. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 17/09/2009 03:08:34 PM

- literary criticism

No. Camilla bought me a book a few years ago and I just cannot work up the enthusiasm to pick it up and read it. It looks terrifying, and is called The Madwoman in the Attic.


I think I had to read bits of the for a literature course. Or I used it for research for said course. It was slightly weird.


I can imagine it being more than slightly weird. And the cover creeps me out. :P
