You're Les Miserables!

by Victor Hugo

One of the best known people in your community, you have become
something of a phenomenon. People have sung about you, danced in your honor, created all
manner of art in your name. And yet your story is one of failure and despair, with a few
brief exceptions. A hopeless romantic, you'll never stop hoping that more good will come
from your failings than is ever possible. Beware detectives and prison guards bearing
vendettas.

this made me laugh so much - i did it twice cos there was one question i could answer either way. the other selection was james joyce's ulysses! yes, well, says a lot about me, i spose. wordy, pretentious and obtuse!

as for les mis, i could not finish the book - it was so damned sad. if there were two books i would not like to take onto a desert island these two would be the choice of what to leave behind. why, then, did this thingy choose them for me? beats me! i wouldn't have minded watership down or the secret garden, or even the famous five go hunting mushrooms, if lieu of something decent - but these two? hell will freeze over before i read em! so, if it says i'm them - do not believe it!

what would i choose for my desert island if i could have only six? hm. have to think about that one. ;D
