WORTH CONSUMING!

It’s a very strange story, most notable for its being not about Wilfred of Ivanhoe at all. The afterword or whatever to this edition argues that Rebecca is the real hero, and this is probably true. But what, then, was Scott thinking, calling it Ivanhoe?

Now I’m watching the miniseries, which is very well cast.

WORTH CONSUMING!

I loved the miniseries of this (starring Anthony Andrews) when I was a kid, but I guess I never read the book before. It’s engaging, suspenseful, and easy to read. Weirdly plotted. This edition has a lot of typos.
