btw, i got ure invitation, and i accepted, but i dunno what happened after that. it just took me straight here...is this the new blog?
i'm kind of disappointed that none of the characters from Beloved, or from A Suitable Boy made it in. also whassisface from Rushdie's 'Fury'...also none of the amazing characters from Rushdie's 'The Ground Beneath Her Feet' or from 'Midnight's Children' (which won the Booker of Bookers award; i.e., the best novel to be awarded the prize since its inception). nevermind, they found room for harry potter. harry fucking potter. what ever happened to Dahl in 'Boy'? i thought that was a far more interesting character. oh well...i suppose the ppl who compiled the list know better than i.
i know u feel strongly about jay gatsby's character, joli...but i personally don't think it's worthy of no.1. maybe somewhere in the middle of the list. i really disliked the great gatsby. i dunno why...i felt like i was being spoonfed too much shit. how pretentious, but anyway....
