My 2023 TBR (5/12) 

These are all classics I have yet to read (other than Wuthering Heights- this is one of my new copies). I included this copy of Wuthering Heights because I want to reread it next year since I might be doing my master’s thesis on it.

For some reason, the interactions between Lucy Snowe and Ginevra Fanshawe from "Villette" are more interesting than the ones with Lucy and her love interest. Ginevra is ridiculous and fond of giving some nicknames to Lucy but she's an interesting character alright.

The scene in the ballroom after their vaudeville performance is amusing like this one:

Ginevra being, I suppose, tired with dancing, sought me out in myretreat. She threw herself on the bench beside me, and (a demonstration I could very well have dispensed with) cast her arms round my neck. "Lucy Snowe! Lucy Snowe!" she cried in a somewhat sobbing voice, half hysterical. "What in the world is the matter?" I drily said. "How do I look--how do I look to-night?" she demanded. "As usual," said I; " preposterously vain.

the fact that fintan might have short hair in the graphic novel is something that genuinely perturbs me. like that is just so antithetical to the way i have imagined him being for, like, years. it just doesn't make sense.

but i'm more scared what bronte will look like.

(whatever those two do end up looking like, though...... we know i won't be adhering to that lol.)

The thing is if Fintan has short hair in the novel no he doesn't. If Shannon does that she's Wrong. Fintan isn't her character anymore he's the fandom's little guy, she can say whatever she wants but we don't have to listen to her--I say to you, someone who I don't think has listened to a word Shannon has said ever in your entire life.

I can't even fully picture people or things in my head (they're mostly concepts and impressions. if there's enough for a visual form it's all blurry and faceless) and the thought of Fintan with short hair is still so contrary to my own perception of him. Like no he would not do that. He'd only have short hair if he accidentally burned it all off or something, he's better than that.

And then Bronte...well, we've already got two very different Bronte portraits (unless we go with that theory I had about his hair retracting into his skull that connects the two), so why not a third I suppose? But there will be significantly more art of whatever design this new artist creates....so perhaps you are right to be worried.

But then again, you've turned them into ocs and I don't think there's anything anyone can say about them that will change your mind about what you're doing, so I suppose you're good! I am really curious about this graphic novel though, and have placed my pre-order :)

#kotlc #quil's queries #commonghost #huh. just got two notifs on my phone of gun shots heard near my school campus #this is a normal thing to happen in a normal country. love america /s #anyway. i think this will be the only graphic novel I own #wait no that's a lie I own persepolis 1 and 2 #so it will be my third graphic novel #because I am. not a visual person (because of the can't picturing things thing) #but for keeper....the things i would do #wait no! it will by my 4th graphic novel! #because I also have the twilight graphic novel #forgor about that one :) #but anyway. bronte and fintan could look like anything...what's shannon and this new author gonna do...

Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

The discussions of Elizabeth Gaskell always seem to focus on who she's not. She's not Dickens, she's not Austen, she's not Elliot, and she's definitely not one of the Brontes. At best, they'll say she has Dickens' social justice concerns and Austen's country houses, but who is she? What makes her perspective unique?

As I consider this, I keep coming back to, "She's kind."

She is so kind.

There is a compassion in her writing unlike anything I've seen from other authors. She wants to see people. Know them. Understand them. And when she does, she loves them, faults and all.

When she laughs at people, it's not the satire of Austen or the caricature of Dickens--it's a fond, loving laugh that likes these people in all their ridiculousness.

Even when she's pushing a very clear message about how people should or shouldn't act, you never get the sense that she's judging people who fail to live up to that standard--she's just trying to understand how they got to the place where they made the wrong decision.

In her world, people are kind and deserve to be treated kindly. But that doesn't mean that she ignores the darkness in life. She sees the darkness and sin and squalor and says that's why we need to be kinder to each other. Her kindness comes not from ignoring reality but by paying so much attention to reality that she comes to care deeply for everyone. And I just go crazy over it.

#books #elizabeth gaskell #brought to you by one article that was like 'gaskell's so underrated' #and proceeded to explain why she's inferior to all other classic authors #and by reading one more chapter of ruth #where everyone was so kind that i just wanted to go feral #granted that she has a huge body of work with widely varying tones so this prob doesn't apply to everything #but it's what sticks out to me as uniquely gaskell
