Welcome, KAYDEN. :)
I haven't read this one yet. I guess I was subconsciously equating it with A Million Little Pieces too. I do have a soft spot for weirdos however, so maybe I would like this one.
I'm wandering off now to see if there's an Ann Patchett thread. I was just about to...
I'm reading a Carole Nelson Douglas book about Irene Adler (of Sherlock Holmsian fame) that caused me to google this information.
Just thought I'd share it here:
For instance:
Aragorn - The king
Frodo - the one who bears the burden
Melkor - Messenger, angel and king
Hobbit -...
I'm going to watch PotC #1 for the first time tonight, and that's the truth.
Do you think I'll be the last person on the planet earth be watching this movie for the first time?
Ah, but consider how you would have felt if you had been the individual VN based this character on? He liked to use anagrams, so I am just surmising that if this was a real woman and she would have been able to guess that she was 'Lyuba'. And that if Vera had been at all jealous of 'Lyuba'...
Ooops. Perhaps that was not 'you'.
VN was decidedly cruel to this 'Lyuba Serafimovna Savich'. Do you suspect that he was referring to an actual woman, and do you also suspect that he may have been doing this to somehow placate and reassure his "first reader"?
pp. 83/84
Okay.
I'm telling the truth when I say that this statement is a lie.
So, is the above statement a lie or is it the truth?
(I'm wildly assuming that this thread has been previously Stewie-approved.)
Okay, Stewie, that'll be quite enough of that for right now; settle down.
If anybody who is newish here wants to see the shelter to which this type of gratuitous sniping has driven much of TBF/BAR's superior conversation (not that any of it is mine, mind you), simply click on Moto's link...
Samerron, I hope you know how incredibly important it is that you're helping to make real the horror of this war. I also hope it's some comfort for you to know that you have a cyber-famly of every nationality that cares greatly about your safety.
Thank you for continuing to check in with us!
