Behind the scenes of a classic

Usually your weekly reading assignment is to read something, but in very rare cases, I will allow you to watch the movie, in this case there isn't a book, but with the 5 hour 'Pride and Prejudice' with Collin Firth or 'Much Ado About Nothing,' they are faithful enough to the book/play that you can swap one for the other.  I have not yet seen it, but 'To Walk Invisible' looks like a great movie based on the lives of the Bronte sisters.  If you are a 'Jane Eyre' fan, I think it will be a very interesting peek into the life of the author.  Find the article here.

Assignment

Your reading assignment this week is Jane Eyre (once considered something of a radical feminist novel).  Remember, this is 23.7% of your grade!

All the news from Bree?

There might be news from Bree, but certainly not from Astoria, so go read something Tolkienish.
