I have many favorite moments in literature. Manto’s Toba Tek Singh stuck in no-man’s land; Brontë’s Heathcliff wrenching open the window and soliciting Cathy’s ghost to enter. (Margherita Stantica)Another author interviewed, Jacqueline West on Minnesota Reads:
Let’s say Fahrenheit 451 comes to life, which book would you become in order to save it from annihilation?Daemon's Books reviews Bite Me: A Love Story by Christopher Moore and quotes from the novel:
It might be easiest for me to pick something like Jane Eyre (which I already have half-memorized, thanks to that Victorian-obsessed adolescence), but if I had to embody one book in a Fahrenheit 451 sort of world, I would probably choose Vonnegut’s The Sirens of Titan.
Abby: “I was clearly born in the wrong time. I should have been born in Wuthering Heights times. Although if I was Cathy, I would have hunted down that Heathcliff guy and beat him with a riding crop like a sado-hooker with his Black Card on file. Just sayin’.Associated Content has an article vindicating Jane Eyre 2006; This is Gloucestershire announces the death of actress and writer Betty Paul who debuted as Adèle in 1936; Scrawled in Blue is reading Jane Eyre and thomasenqvist uploads to YouTube a video visiting Haworth and the Parsonage.
I hope JE 2006 doesn't need to be vindicated! Has critical opinion soured on this version? It's so marvellous.
