I loved it. She's almost on par with Anya Seton for exquisitely-researched historical novels (especially ones that seamlessly integrate with the modern world, a la Seton's Green Darkness). Almost.

Almost 58 years later, I still haven't decided which side influenced me more.

Viewing order according to "how many liberties did the director take with this version":

- Stratford Festival, 1987
- Branagh's adaptation
- Josie Rourke's David Tennant/Catherine Tate adaptation
- Joss Whedon's adaptation
- Stratford Festival, 2023

Societies hate it when people in the masses discover they have the power of choice. I knew at 14 I would never want/have kids; even my mom, who encouraged me to believe I could do whatever I wanted, didn't believe me on that one. I have never regretted breaking so many old, unwelcomed patterns.

Not that I will ever be able to afford to buy a house, let alone a $2mil one, but a built-in library would be MORE enticement to its charms, not a detraction!
