“Nobody was autistic in the past!”

Lord Hollingford: shy, doesn‘t know what to say to people who don‘t have the same interests as him, would have learned from a book of small talk, simple character, famous scientist

Thanks for the tag @RaeLovesToRead !

1. I think the further in time you move from a particular decade or generation, the easier it is to reduce it to a set of characteristics, events, or images that come to be emblematic of the whole. In that sense, you can absolutely have a book that defines the popular view of a generation.

2. The Great Gatsby defines the Jazz Age and the 1920s.

1. I can't say that ONE book can definitively define a decade, but it can certainly encapsulate it. And you usually know that because you can't imagine the book anywhere but in that decade. ROMEO AND JULIET can occur in any decade; THE GRAPES OF WRATH can't.
2. Near impossible for TGG to exist anywhere but in NYC in the Roaring 20s.

#WhatTheDickens

Ugh, I don‘t care for Mr Flintwinch at all also I‘m highly suspicious of Arthur‘s mother 🤨 I love the little drawings in a Dickens novel, wouldn‘t it be nice if novels had little drawings in them? I guess the costs for an illustrator and printing would be astronomical. @Texreader

Sunday‘s book swap scores on the hour or so walk home from 5 hours of rehearsals so I wasn‘t in too much pain come Monday. Let me tell you the muscles you use as a showgirl girl are completely different to ballet! I‘m not sure which shoes are worse, pointe or chorus. Even a simple bevel is hard! But it‘s my dream come true so I‘ll get through it.

As always Austen has masterful character and symbolic work, but Fanny felt a bit too much of an abused victim, that let's themselves get walked all over by others, but deep inside they have strong opinions(tm).

It's not that a meek character cannot be interesting, its that on top of ot all Fanny is very judgemental and puritanical and I did not care for it.
