I loathe Rebecca from Ivanhoe. Walter Scott was addressing anti-semitism.
But, there's no greater prejudice than idealisation. When only perfection's tolerable.
And I got sick of Miss most beautiful, most intelligent, most compassionate, more courageous ....

Anyone else dislike Dickens heroines? *can't stand 'em*
He writes perceptions instead of women and Estella's the fulfilment of this - a character cultivated for perception. :frustrated:

i guess, from the way the characters are portrayed his twin and "the widow" are supposed to be the antagonists. i just want to give rushdie credit for successfully depicting these two characters.
