It DOES scare me a little, even thinking about it.

If you like someone who can handle multiple points of views brilliantly then you should read Iris Murdoch - she's the peachiest at that.

I was initially worried about the writing, but I thought it was brilliant! It has actually made me more excited to read more 19th Century literature!
