Well yeah Written by Cindy S (4/4/2003 1:51 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, The style, penned by Laura Dawn

] ] Well, I don't think NA is darker or like a Bronte novel. It is a parody. I read somewhere that NA is 'the most youthful and optimistic of Jane Austen's novels.'

] I must agree. It is only Catherine that tries to make it dark by her reversion into Gothic mode - when herlife quite blatantly isn't!Bless that girl.

Well actually you are both quite right. But I was thinking of the only movie we have about NA and that was a bit of a disappointment. It occured to me as vague and a bit "dark". But I think the fact that it is some kind of horror-book adds to the "dark"ness level, if you know what I mean.
