The Haunting of Hill House
Book by Shirley Jackson. Has anyone read it? Or at the very least seen one of the two movies? It's one of my favorites. I like We Have Always Lived In the Castle a little better no one's read that. What types are the characters? I'm curious, especially about Theadora and Eleanor.
"How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."
-- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
