Go Meryl!

Oh, but the setting!

When “Christian” was redefined as the worship of Donald trump and political power.
The name doesn’t mean much these days and is often a misnomer; look at the content for the reality.

Personally, I think there’s an argument to be made for Austen pulling more characterization and plot from Sicilian than Udolpho, but who knows?!

I see your Udolpho, and I raise you Sicilian.

But also- if you thought it was going to be any other way when donald started his campaign for president riding down in a gold elevator and calling people of color rapists and criminals, you might not have a solid grasp on human character or reality.

Oh, friend.

Or we could just say H.G. Wells was right.

Overrated.

Oh, friend.
