May. 2nd, 2004 09:04 pm*cackles* I like Bernard Cornwell.
This is a quote from a question asked by a fan and BC's reply as posted on his website.
Q. ".......And here I would like to share an observation with you and hope that you won't take offense. Some of the appeal of characters like Hornblower/Bush, Sharpe/Harper, is the hint of homoeroticism that exists between men who rely so entirely on each other. I don't mean to suggest that these characters appear to be homosexual, merely that they have an emotional make-up texturally rich enough to encompass this fragile component of male friendship. I have recently begun to suspect that the appeal to women of this characteristic of stong male friendships has been traditionally ignored, or at least very underrated......"
A. "Hello Lynne. I don't mind the inference, but Sharpe and Harper are shocked to the core are now are not speaking to me! "
*sniggers*
was going to say something else but have forgotten it :P
