I've read this two times for school, wathcing the film of it twice as well. Both times I've enjoyed it. On the second reading, though, I was able to read into the book, giving it more meaning and depth!!! A classic!!!

What a speedy Atlantic crossing!

I frequently feel like everyone except me read this book at school, and as I haven't seen the film either (still can't do that 'watch the movie THEN read the book' thing, has to be the other way round for me :O)), it's not too late for me to give it a whirl.

Thanks so much to the lovely bflybabe for passing this on to me...as promised, when I've read it I will journal again, and then either pass it on to another BookCrosser or release it into the wild. :O)

Update 28/04/04

A mere year later...

I just finished reading this today...very powerful, and very, very bleak. I felt quite depressed reading it, but I'm still glad I did. Now I understand what all the fuss is about! :O)

Picked up at Leeds Meet. I haven't read this since studying it at high school and well worth a re-read I think. The artwork from the front cover is particularly eyecatching as well, think pagan greenmanchildish.
