Charles Dicken's "Martin Chuzzlewitt". I watched it in movie form and it was WONDERFUL! I'm sure the book must be even better. Take that on one if you dare!! :)~ Lindy ~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17068731646949113732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764136035601124126.post-74471232819145340452010-01-18T13:01:20.612-05:002010-01-18T13:01:20.612-05:00Some classics I like and some I don't.

My issue is I just want to know what they are about. But the books on Tape works better for books I don't love. I sometimes listen while stitching.Willahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03735417078088628918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764136035601124126.post-6483842791770542222010-01-18T09:18:32.435-05:002010-01-18T09:18:32.435-05:00I've never read Wuthering Heights, but I read ...I've never read Wuthering Heights, but I read The Lovely Bones soon after it came out. I would never have guessed they'd make a movie out of it. I may have to see it just so I can figure out why they did.<br /><br />I'm with you on "great literature". The nuances are lost on me.gocrazywithmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04063066209331964997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764136035601124126.post-11117924596384927152010-01-17T23:43:49.472-05:002010-01-17T23:43:49.472-05:00I have to say, I've discovered exactly the sam...I have to say, I've discovered exactly the same thing!! I LOVE to read books, and devour them daily (mostly at bedtime!! However, I get amnesia every once in a while and decide that perhaps I ought to read something "classic." <br /><br />A couple of years ago, it was Mark Twain....who would have thought it would be so boring? Then, I tried a biography of Leonardo Da Vinci...good grief, that was even worse!! My latest was the poems of Elizabeth Barratt Browning... Out of this huge tome, I was able to find only two or three of her poems that actually rhymed, and made a bit of sense...I decided I wasn't nearly bright enough to appreciate the others. <br /><br />I've found that I'm quite shallow, and much prefer my murder mysteries, and detective stories much more than those that might "enlighten" me! <br /><br />Have you ever tried reading "Little Women? Don't bother! LOL!<br /><br />CarolynCarolynPhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561414352635851207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764136035601124126.post-83190388745775740312010-01-14T11:54:33.017-05:002010-01-14T11:54:33.017-05:00Thanks for visiting me!

It isn't because I can't, I just don't want to...I will wait till the movie comes out!Ceekay-THINKIN of HOMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15111241316745923019noreply@blogger.com
