For Whom the Belle Tolls

@bellepocrypha

Writer, cultural observer, closet medievalist with the prudishness of a Victorian. Everyone secretly believes in the Great Chain of Being as much as I do.

I love when you read an old book and its like a narrator who finds a manuscript by a guy who’s being told the story by another guy who was only tangentially involved in the plot of the actual novel

Real Austen hipsters prefer the 1980 BBC P&P with Elizabeth Garvie and David Rintoul. Or for a true deep cut, the 1967 black and white TV serial (also BBC.)

The real problem with modern Austen adaptations is that they are mawkish in the extreme. Her books are essentially anti-sentimental but the prevailing sentiment here is soppiness. Her keen observation of human foibles and brutal moral judgement is absent in modern adaptations.

Happy Birthday to-day to Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966), one of the finest novelists of the 20th century. Brideshead Revisited (and its brilliant TV adaptation) gets the lion's share of the glory nowadays, but I'm a sucker for Decline and Fall. Celebrate by reading one of his books!

People who hate on the time-turner in The Prisoner of Azkaban are joyless sci-fi loving autists.

Feeling sick and a bit discouraged by a few knocks in life….“Wow, pain at the top of the head? Maybe I have brain cancer and this will be thankfully over soon” is the attitude of the moment.
