Tess of the D’ubervilles was assigned summer reading between 8th and 9th grade before I went into honors English and I remember loving it—but I must not have had a good memory of the book because when I saw the MPT version a few years ago I didn’t remember the illegitimate baby thing. So much for reading comprehension! It’s a good version too.
Haha. Yeah, I’d call that a fairly important part. Can’t wait to watch!
yes…watch and talk about it! i watched this production of tess a few months ago. would love to hear what you both think!
Will do! I’ll let you know when we get started.
Thank you for that last link! Can I take your definition of it and change it to “required reading for everyone”? When so many people are introverts it’s sad that it’s looked on so badly.
By all means! I think it’s really important facts for people to be aware of.
Give a heads up before you two watch it. It’s well done…very tragic.
I’m hearing nothing but good things from people! I’ll let you know when we start it.
Loved the introverts article. Thanks for sharing it!
I found it to be really accurate. Glad you enjoyed it!
