avreliaIf you knew how many posts I made up in my mind, and then never wrote down, you would be amazed. Or not. But I can assure you, they were all smart and witty, and thought –provoking. Why then I post only boring stuff, and even that once a week? I should be writing more, you know.
Oh, well.
Does anyone know a poet Walter De La Mare? I liked his poems as a child – in Russian translation, of course. Suddenly I remembered about him, and I am now looking him up in the Internet, even though it is not in any way useful activity.
After one conversation with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
the_royal_anna I am rereading The Woman in White. First, I’ve read the introduction – the biography of Wilkie Collins, the history of the book, etc. The result? I am shocked. Those naughty Victorians, they don’t exactly fit into proper stereotypes.

That's not what I thought about them before.
