yay for bartleby?

[grneyedaltlady]

...poor Bartleby! it just makes me sad! but it makes me laugh at the same time because the narrator is a dimwit

tcha. i just finished benito cereno, and it's not nearly as good; just kind of slow and agonizing.
now i'm typing up dozens of 'senior wills'. ergh.

[grneyedaltlady]

i'm almost done with it, i kind of agree, except i really love the descriptions of Don Benito himself...I really think Melville is wonderful at developing characters in such short stories

[daddy_twofoot]

I like both Melville and Hawthorne. But I hate this damned essay.

Have you ever noticed how much our friends complain?

[grneyedaltlady]

AMEN. To both statements.

Although I complain a lot too, so I don't really want to say much about it...

[safe_insanity]

same here, lol!

[daddy_twofoot]

Hah, the irony is that I'm complaining about people complaining. We all do it, I just am noticing it more lately.
