Mr Wickham Written by Emmeline (1/20/2004 12:48 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, thoughts thusfar, penned by Karen Marija

]The attraction of Mr. Wickham has always puzzled me. I know he was very handsome and amiable, but speaks so freely and openly of his misfortunes; I would expect him to be more circumspect and reserved, especially around people he has only just met. I would think that someone who complains so much and cries, "poor me!" so often would not be considered a captivating conversationalist.

I agree. And I do not believe it right for a person to tell about his own misfortunes on so short an acquaintance, and to speak ill of someone else.
