Oh and to anyone who ever was not formally welcomed by someone,
it was not done on purpose. we are all in other worlds too and can be forgetful.
welcome one and all and know that your thoughts and feelings are precious and will be respected and probably admired on the lit forum.
so know in advance this is what I personally think of all of you, the others will have to do bananas themselves!
Hi there
I'm from Bordeaux and try to share my love for english literature, so please correct me when I make mistakes...
In my place the sun has disapeared so in that sad day I'm trying to enjoy myself, but the only thing I've found to do is to read some Edgar Allan Poe poetries... Factualy I like it, but I'd rather read something more hopeful.. any idea?

Hi Jane, Welcome to the forum. Ok, if you mean english spellings and gramatical mistakes in your post, then I will like to correct your little mistakes. (not that I am very good in English)
You have written "that sad day"
It should be "the sad day"
It should be Edgar Allan Poe's poems not "poetries"
I will advice you to read something funny that will cheer you up.

Welcome Crazy Jane. I love that name too. Do you know that William Butler Yeats has a bunch of poems with a character named Crazy Jane? Perhaps you do and took the name from him. Here's a cool Crazy Jane poem by Yeats to welcome you to the forum:Originally Posted by CrazyJane
CRAZY JANE TALKS WITH THE BISHOP by William B. Yeats
I met the Bishop on the road
And much said he and I.
'Those breasts are flat and fallen now,
Those veins must soon be dry;
Live in a heavenly mansion,
Not in some foul sty.'
'Fair and foul are near of kin,
And fair needs foul,' I cried.
'My friends are gone, but that's a truth
Nor grave nor bed denied,
Learned in bodily lowliness
And in the heart's pride.
'A woman can be proud and stiff
When on love intent;
But Love has pitched his mansion in
The place of excrement;
For nothing can be sole or whole
That has not been rent.'

Hi Anthony, Well, I guess our literature course has not changed, the same old stuff by Shakespeare.
By the way, welcome to the forum and I hope that you will have a great time here.

Willow, the french name of the Three Musketers is "les trois Mousquetaires" from Alexandre Dumas, I've read it few years ago, the story is a bit slow at the beginning but I remember that I enjoyed it. yesterday I decided to read American Psycho, I don't think that was great idea, it's really strange, but it changed my feelings so I guess it was not that much a bad idea. What do you think about it?
( I've just finished a season of Buffy in DVD, the Third one, and my favourite character remains willow, the witch... )
Hey Crazy , No need for "thanks" *smiles*
I have got American Psyco DVD and I might watch it someday. I have watched some episodes of Buffy, The Vampire Slayer and I liked them a lot.
