I Love Art, Music and Literature

What is this a dating site group,all thats missing is "fine wine and walks on the beach".......Anyway it is an irrefutable truth that if you take the second line of any great book and substitute "and then the murders began" it is much better. Think about it...

That is an interesting theory...I just thought it was saying that you like Art, Music, and Literature...which I do, just for the record and then the murders began...

@justmerae: Its always something like that;try a Tale of Two Cities,or Moby Dick!

@bookerdana: I did not like Tale of two Cities. Moby Dick was okay. Personal favorites are the less cerebral Jane Austins...which is still too cerebral for many people now...anyway it was the best of times it was the worst of times...

Not like.how heretical! And then the murders started...

@bookerdana: I like most of Dickens other works if that redeems me in anyway...

I thought Austen a tad feminine..,"Oh Mr Bingham!"

@bookerdana: "Oh, Mr. Darcy!"
She had a great satirical wit...

Yeah,but men were distant characters to be won...she wrote well but for a man its:WHAT?

@bookerdana: I heard her life was a bit sheltered and she wrote from that point of view. Her most complex novel is Mansfield Park. The Heroine there is shy and awkward and the story-line is a bit more developed than her earlier ones.
