Interesting Characters


February Challenge Question 24:
24. Write about your favorite character from a book or movie.
Hmmm. This is a toughie. Well, as you know I have a theatre background. One of my favorite plays is A Streetcar Named Desire.  I think it is beautifully written and Blanche is a very complex character.  I also like Nora from A Doll’s House for the same reason.  I just think they are two very well written characters.  I don’t like these two characters' decisions and actions; I actually very much disagree with the choices these characters make.  However, I enjoy analyzing literature, and these characters are interesting to discuss and analyze.  I really enjoyed writing papers on A Streetcar named Desire and A Doll’s House in college.
As a kid, I really liked—and have to say I still do—Nancy Drew, Ramona Quimby, and Anne (with an “e”) of Green Gables.
Isn't children's literature great?  What was your favorite novel as a child?
