P & P

Apparently there are famous people who hate Price & Prejudice with a passion. Here's the head-scratcher, via Mark Twain:

"I often want to criticize Jane Austen, but her books madden me so that I can't conceal my frenzy from the reader; and therefore I have to stop every time I begin. Every time I read 'Pride and Prejudice' I want to dig her up and beat her over the skull with her own shin bone!"

What? "Every time"? I like re-reading books I love, but if you hate Pride & Prejudice so much why are you reading it again & again? 🤔 🤷‍♂️
