He's old.
If someone says something bad about you, say something nice about them. That way, both of you would be lying.

I like his writings. You loose yourself in this. My favorite till now is David Copperfield. I have some very nice old editions with the illustrations by Fitch.  :)

This anti-semitism thing I have never noticed while I read. Althrough I have not read Oliver Twist. But in the other books are lots of seriously bad and evil protagonists and none of them is Jewish.

Perhaps I start Twist the next weeks. Than I can judge.

I remember one time there was a tv guide that said David Copperfield would be on tv so I thought it was going to be the magician and I was going to watch and then I was disappointed to see it was a televized version of the Dickens tale.  :::D

I can never read fiction. I can never get into it.
I soon as I realise its fiction, I lose interest.

I liked Tale of Two Cities.  He sure puts the French down.

What do you get a man who is 200 years old?

Petrified Wood?

You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14
