London...
[Elizabeth]
I can't believe you've never
read any Georgette Heyer. It's
not the bodice-ripping stuff
people think it is.
[Bell]
I don't read all that much. I
get back from work and I just
want to sit around, listen to
music, nothing too demanding.
[Panel 2]
[Bell]
It's like that time a few years
back when everyone was talking
about The Lord of the Rings... I
couldn't get into it.
[Elizabeth]
Oh, well, there's a trick to that.
Before you go back to it, try
reading the book Tolkien did first.
[Panel 3]
[Elizabeth]
It's got a lot of the
ideas he used later about
honour and reliability.
[Bell]
What, The Hobbit?
The Silmarillion was
later, wasn't it?
[Panel 4]
[Elizabeth]
No, Sir Gawain and the Green
Knight. Even if you can't
understand it it's great poetry!
"For wonder of his hwe men hade,
Set in his semblaunt sene;
He ferde as freke were fade,
And oueral enker-grene."
[Bell]
Um... right. I think I'll
start with the Heyer.
