Yeah, reading great literature can be a little scary at times. But for those who didn't click on the link, here's her explanation: <<When I first read "Great Expectations" as a high school freshman I completely glossed over the terrifying reality of Miss Havisham, who wears an old wedding dress and has left her mouldering wedding cake on the table for decades. Every clock in Satis House, her decaying mansion, is stopped at twenty minutes to nine-the exact moment she found out she was being left at the altar. She wears a single shoe, and eventually dies of burns (after the wedding dress catches fire). Is anything more upsetting than this? The story of Miss Havisham is the story of HOW a house becomes haunted. She's Satis House's ghostly lore. Or would be, if Satis House existed. >>> |
