People who says this book is boring or dumb are simply illiterate and don't understand. Excellent book if you know what's going on and can understand the metaphors<br>

One is not dumb if one is unable to comprehend. Illiterate people are not stupid; they simply cannot get it alone. Perhaps you might consider helping them understand, instead of condemning them to their own struggles. :D

Aw, Neverland1247...you're very sweet. And very right. And your smiley makes me happy! (Good on you for providing apparently much-needed definitions of "illiterate" and "dumb.")

hay bren if you are so smart why dont you say something in my thread above "A tale of two cities- New found interest". And yes i agree that many are unable to appreciate the complexity of the book, but many are not as interested in the book as you and i and so don't give it a chance. Also dickens dosn't give a uninterested reader a chance with his wordiness.

edit: WOW THIS IS A REALLY OLD THREAD!
