Susan tried to shift, but her dress tangled around her legs—the same dress she’d worn to the Bryant’s New Year’s party. The waist belt pinched at stomach and the material she thought lovely now itched miserably at her skin.<br />–––––––––<br /><br />Again: mastery. Her 'grown-up' life thrives *out* of the sun. But the sun, source of all life, shines in and puts to shame all artificial light, all artificial joy, all the counterfeits of our world. <br /><br />And then, to have all the symbols of her striving — dresses, fine silks, temporary glamour — show themselves to be ultimately discomforting. Thus does eternity criticize the moment. All in one snapshot. Really, you can't ask for finer writing.barrybrakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17778163052096094733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2538625224020600073.post-17425076898875861452019-07-07T15:19:52.871-07:002019-07-07T15:19:52.871-07:00I'm loving that you all are loving the rings ;...I'm loving that you all are loving the rings ;D <br /><br />And I know? He is so privileged ;D A lot of people believe that they would have been tight lipped about it, but I don't think that'd always be the case. Otherwise they wouldn't have discovered that there were other "friends" of Narnia. And I think Eustace told Jill a little about Narnia before they went, too, didn't he? Can't be sure on that actually ,...<br />Keturah Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041749245034077912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2538625224020600073.post-29586041097358073982019-07-06T06:45:20.522-07:002019-07-06T06:45:20.522-07:00AHHH THE RINGS!!

T...I was wondering what book you were quoting from! That's awesome that you used C.S. Lewis's own words to convict Susan. I am interested to see how she is going to change, if she will change. I also like how you portrayed Carl. He means well, even if he is completely wrong. As for the rings, I am definitely intrigued, considering The Magician's Nephew.M.H.

I'm so glad you've seen his good side, though ;) Out of all my characters, I think he surprised me the most. And I'll be writing an article on him once this serial is through. And yes, totally read the Pilgrim's Regress. THAT BOOK IS AMAZING. And I may have cheated with this chapter by turning it into a fictional review of the book ;) The rings are exciting, to be sure ;) Thanks so much!!
