(Although in this case it will be the 2004 film...) But I love Leroux's novel, just love it! Even though I already owned a small paperback when I found a spiffy illustrated hardcover at my favorite used bookshop? Oh yes it was coming home with me!

I did know a little about the plot from the musical, but the two are really nothing alike.

I'm currently reading Trollope's autobiography, and the part where he thunders at a meeting, "You're wrong! I couldn't be more in disagreement! Now what was it you were saying?" has increased my respect for him tenfold :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07546287562521628467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972764383963459152.post-54311331102389941182011-01-09T19:56:10.260-05:002011-01-09T19:56:10.260-05:00Well, you're not alone in not having read this...Well, you're not alone in not having read this novel (or knowing what will happen next); I haven't even seen the opera yet! Your review was great, makes me want to pick it up this year as I love the French. And the Russians. And the Japanese. ;)Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.com
