Description

Despite Deacon Badpatch's best efforts toward purging Marble-Town of novels, it seems that a certain someone has got her hands on an English translation of The Sorrows of Young Werther. A New-Year's gift from rich Uncle Sylvester, the affecting tale of unrequited love will be voraciously consumed not only by Miss Charlotte, but by all of her friends as well. Bother. There's nothing to be done about it save for preaching yet another sermon on the evils of reading.

With a little tip of the hat to solzicka , one of very few people I know who remembers how novels were meant to be enjoyed.
