Jun. 16th, 2008 11:47 amI've been reading 'Frankenstein' by Mary Shelley for the last couple of weeks. It's not especially long but it was hardly 'unput-down-able'. In fact I really struggled with it and ( at one point resorted to skimming over great chunks. )I can only assume that I am missing something that many many other people found and enjoyed in this book - it has been lauded for 200 years after all. I just feel that it's a really cracking idea, a gorgeous plot, utterly underachieved.
Have just watched a clip of Daniel Radcliffe and Richard Griffiths presenting an award. Was struck yet again by how little DR is and thought ,not for the first time, life must be so weird for him. But then it occurred to me that actually I'm even shorter than he is (or at least admits to being) and it doesn't seem weird to me.
