Oh Capitalism!
Oct. 16th, 2005 05:35 pmBookfair with cheap books in Brussels. Filled a basket with books and payed 55 EURO. Got some stuff for school, cookbooks and Alice in Wonderland. Can't wait till it's too cold to go outside and I'm doomed to sit in my red leather couch and devour these beauties. At the moment I'm engrossed in Pride and Prejudice. It's such a great book. I hear Mrs. Bennet crying in my head every time one of her daughters doesn't pay attention to her delicate nerves. I chuckle aloud at Mr. Bennet's dry wit. And my little girl's heart goes pitter-patter at every mention of the name Mr. Darcy. If Jane Austen didn't invent the romantic comedy, she did perfect the genre.
