Now I'm sorry I brought it up. I mentioned it
only because I was not sure "this novel" was included
and of course it was.
Hearing it now I'd be
wide awake and find it clear enough, but at sectionals
I was semicomatose that round. I had seen the film
more recently than I had read the book so I buzzed in
lazily with "Catherine Sloper in The Heiress."
Doh!
