Random thought about Possession
Something I'd forgotten, but was reminded of by this post from Sheila is the change in my feelings towards Val in Possession. When I was intending to live an academic life, I don't think I even noticed her, except maybe to dispise what I remember as "the bright-coloured blouses" she wears for work. And then later, when I'd finally faced the reality that I wasn't going back to Cambridge, I wasn't doing my PhD and I wasn't going to spend the rest of my life reading obscure texts in dead languages, and had a horrible job that I hated more than I can express, how my sympathy for Val grew. Not surprising, I suppose.
