OK, here's hoping I don't make this too complicated. I'm going to name a fictional character; and I would like whoever replies first to name another who they feel is in some way similar. The next reply will be based on that person's character and whatever similarities to others they think they can find, and so on and so on. I think it will be interesting once things start winding down to see where we end up.
Unless your reply character has an obvious similarity (for example, I say Dracula, you say Lestat), please elaborate on what you feel you see and enlighten others on aspects they might not have noticed before.
And our first character is: Esmeralda from Hugo's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame".
What character, in all that you have ever read, do you feel has something in common with her? Someone else who was a gypsy? Someone else who was stolen at birth? Someone else who fell for the wrong guy? Anything you can think of.

I may be over-sensitive, but to me, the term "Learn More" sounds rather condescending, as if to imply that the author is so superior, and therefore has to "teach" us poor dumb readers. Does anyone else feel that way?
