Welcome to Litsy!

That was an adventure, but I can‘t help but feel the ending was a bit of a letdown. Overall, I enjoyed this and I‘m glad I read it. #RandomClassics

All so good…❤️📚

It‘s a beautiful paperback edition from my boxed set that I bought last weekend. There are SO many editions!!! I can‘t find this one on the list so I‘m just adding this photo.

Did I not also live this unnatural life for ten months? Thus, to that question asked six thousand years ago by Ecclesiastes, “That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out?” only two men now have the right to answer: Captain Nemo and myself.

Having stalled on The Pickwick Papers, I wasn‘t sure how I‘d like OT. I loved the combination of social justice and melodrama. The characterization of Fagin is definitely heavy handed and problematic; that aside I found this a surprisingly engrossing read.
