He would have done it if he had known it!<br /><br />At the end of the day, I think I'd rather take with me the fact that it may bring new people to Wuthering Heights and the Brontës, which is not a bad thing.

That is why the book didn't get the attention it deserved back then. Lol! I guess it wouldn't hurt him to visit a medium to foresee it, but then the public too would have no idea who that Bella and Edward were. The things that they would miss...<br /><br />Don't get me wrong I have never even read Twilight, but to think that a classic should gain in value, due to a modern and quite universally thought average written book, doesn't thrill me. I guess we can call this absurd, a triumph of advertising, however.ksotikoulahttp://www.youtube.com/user/ksotikoulanoreply@blogger.com
