One of the accused in the recent acid attack on a 3-yr-old boy is his father...just as you thought that story couldn't get worse.
Started it a couple of weeks ago when I found Edith Grossman's translation. Still fighting the language at the mo but less than when I tried a classic translation. Spoiler In the second part of the book all the characters have read the first part of the book Vin
Mine is a Tom Lathrop translation. Not sure if that makes it a good or bad version. But my word it is so funny. It blows my mind that it was written in 1605. The humour is so 'now'. It's blatantly obvious Quixote gave the Python mob the idea for Holy Grail. I'm only 200 pages in, so about another 800 to go. Haha.
OMG! OMG! Have just discovered that I am registered on Saintsweb. Am usually turned down, so had no idea. What do I do? Do I need injections? Can I have dual membership with Not606? Will I even be allowed back in by you guys? I'm scared.
It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice. Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? I command ye therefore, upon the peril of your life, to depart immediately out of this place. Go, get you out! Make haste! Ye venal slave be gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors. In the name of God, go! - With apologies to Oliver Cromwell
