well, i was just telling cassie that i loved that you put her in a category with Georgette, since ever since you mentioned this I have been completely stumped on thinking of *any* hero that isn't Sylvester, Mr. Beaumaris, et cetera, et cetera.
However, after grumbling while Cassie t00bed about looking up snazzy books, I have managed to come up with a list. It sucks, but I do hope you'll overlook that. :) In no particular order:
1) Huck Finn. 2) David Copperfield. 3) Henry Crawford (from Mansfield Park, for the uninitiated) 4) Ivan Denisovitch. I realise this is a stretch, but the grim, wry humor of some of his commentary is, I believe, absolutely fascinating, if not a devastating, sparkling kind of wit. 5) No one said we couldn't say plays, so I am saying Cinderella's prince from Into the Woods.
Dammit, I know I should be able to come up with more than that. Ah, well. Tis late. But you have given me something to ponder over for the rest of the week. *grins*
