What a good thought! Written by MarianneR (10/24/2008 3:21 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, The converse could've been true :-), penned by JanELT

I must admit I never realised that Anne did accept CW´s proposal first and rejected him afterwards! In a way that is even worse than resenting the proposal itself... Pondering on it I wonder what words she would have uttered - oh, what an awful job!

Thank you, Jan, for your post - it´s really fascinating, how many aspects there are once you discuss the novel with so many differnt people!
