Literary Update
Healthcliff is brooding; Cathy is haughty.
The Don’s library is being divvied up for burning.

I never got passed the first chapter of any Bronte sister novel. I meant to ask you what your opinion was of Slaughterhouse-Five?
Depressing, Inspiring, Disorienting, Fatalistic & Optimistic. That is to say, I very much enjoyed it. Vonnegut’s dark wit never fails to stimulate thought, and almost always entertains. Slaughterhouse-Five definitely did both for me.
On a personal, human note I was impressed and moved at how he transforms his own, real life experiences in WWII into a literary vehicle.
I probably should do a Vonnegut reading list if/when I finish with the 50 Classics Project.
