I had to read that book for one of my first year university Englush classes. The class was taught by a spaced out unitarian that was only slightly less boring than the book itself.
The most honest equivalent I could give to the average poster that hasnt attempted to read Bleakhouse is that it is like reading through 800 pages of Gbaji responses. My eyes feel like bleeding just from the memory.
So what is the deal? Do they make a joke about shrubbery? Are the girls scantily dressed? Did they tell you it was the second season of Lost?
