Vile Bodies: First Post (First Impressions)
Well, I haven't even gotten into the story itself thus far, just the author's note and the introductory quote from "Through the Looking Glass". The Red Queen's running quote seems vaguely appropriate to much of Waugh's work! I love that in the author's note Waugh tells us what the date of Christmas is, just in case anyone wouldn't know, when giving the chronology for the book. I can't wait to dive into the story itself!
