Charles Dickens - "Bleak House"
Does anyone else here like Dickens? I'm re-reading Bleak House, and the man just has a way with phrases and with using inanimate things to illustrate a person. I just finished re-reading Nicholas Nickleby and The Pickwick Papers, too, but Bleak House has always been one of my favorites.
I think I'll start just posting some of those good phrases as I go along, and anyone else please feel free to join in!
