Melissa over at Dear Mr. Dickens created this little gem of an infographic, and I simply had to share. Anyone who's ever read or loved a Dickens novel will understand. Bleak House is bleak, man. Thanks to Leila for the heads up.
I've been a bit scarce round these parts of late and I feel badly about it. But there is a good reason and I've been waiting until today to share it with you. Just so I could include one rather pertinent detail. It's a boy! Fortunately I'm at the point where I'm starting to feel better, so things should soon start resembling business as usual around here. I, for one, am relieved.
Love that Dickens chart!!!! And I love Dickens's novels.
ReplyDeleteMe, too! A TALE OF TWO CITIES is probably my favorite, which is why I'm so looking forward to Sarah Rees Brennan's retelling of it.
DeleteThe spontaneous combustion is my favorite literary death ever but I really want to check out Dombey and Son now to learn about this dismemberment.
ReplyDeleteHa! How could it not be?
