"...propped up against a bail of hay" indeed.

I've got some used copies of Swann's Way and Jane Eyre whose covers make them both look like trashy 80's romance novels, and I totally do not regret those purchases.

@21 - I guess we're nerds who are passionate about Anne of Green Gables and have "nothing better to do". You're a person who's taking the time to fight with a bunch of people who love Anne of Green Gables. So ... that's where you're at.

Posted by Vlad]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2013 19:56:07 -0800 The Stranger major plot point in the books that she's a redhead. It's not just a one-line throwaway description -- whole story lines revolve around her having red hair (e.g., the hair dying incident @3 mentions).

You can argue about hair color of the cover model vs. the character all you want. That's a really inane and obsessive thing to do, but hey, some nerds don't have anything better to do. Turning this into something sexual is just plain prudery.

I saw her on an episode of Law and Order once playing the accused mother of a dead child. I thought that she was going to make it big in Hollywood, but I guess she decided she'd rather go for steady work in Canada.

“If Sylvia Plath hadn’t already killed herself, she probably would’ve if she saw the new cover of her only novel The Bell Jar,” wrote Jezebel’s Morrissey, who then added her aesthetic judgment of the artwork: “Also, it’s ugly and the colors suck.”

Posted by keshmeshi]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2013 17:48:08 -0800 The Stranger No, the issue is Paul Constant attempting to conceal his sexual identity and not coming to terms with who he is. It is pretty sad, but I wish him strength in completing his journey through life.
