I cannot stand Dickens except Tale of Two Cities. I honestly enjoyed that one, and if I had to pick something, I'd pick that. And if you're going to like any form of Scrooge, I'd go with the Patrick Stuart one-man-show. That, gotta admit, is pretty awesome. I'm surprised you didn't go off on a tangent about Scrooge, a noble character, but get really fired up and burned over gargamel. -Not quite so ananomous
"This is where using the royal we gets us in trouble." I don't get this sentence you sound like Gollum from Lord Of The Rings. And was Charles Dickens Jewish or a flagrant anti-Semite?

Dear Not Quite So Ananomous,
ReplyDeleteit's just that I hate Dickens so much that it dwarfs any disdain I have for Scrooge.
Yet, come to think of it, Dickens doesn't even make my top 3 hated authors.
3. Nathaniel Hawthorne
2. Herman Melville
1. Henry David Thoreau
Thankfully, not a Jew among them...
