Your reviews are riveting; look forward to reading North and South!Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04693072512370803967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574386226748614156.post-71288497846919325252011-01-29T20:28:39.542-08:002011-01-29T20:28:39.542-08:00I haven't yet read the book, but a friend reco...I haven't yet read the book, but a friend recommended the miniseries to me and I've recently watched the entire thing - twice! You'll find that the ending of the movie also demands "reheating and re-eating." <br /><br />You may also be interested to know, given your recent post on Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, that Richard Armitage, who plays Mr. Thornton in the miniseries, has been cast as Thorin in the upcoming Hobbit movie.Maegan Langerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335946908481515797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574386226748614156.post-45684187509189913732011-01-29T17:07:54.140-08:002011-01-29T17:07:54.140-08:00Wonderfully written and analyzed, Julie.

There's so much to discuss about the two novels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574386226748614156.post-66660988745909060882011-01-29T14:36:30.030-08:002011-01-29T14:36:30.030-08:00Oh, I'm impressed and motivated.

Just lack of time and too many books. <br /><br />I read that Gaskell only recently got a plaque in Westminster Abbey, due to dedicated fans and descendents.Jeannine Atkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886966069866356470noreply@blogger.com
