My detective work was faulty

[towerbridge2006.livejournal.com]

Since I'm a new friend I had to do some guessing. Flunked at 50%. Oh well... Lawrence of Arabia was my fave when I was a kid. A boyfriend gave me the souvenir book and I tried to wade my way through Seven Pillars of Wisdom. I thought Peter O'Toole was totally robbed of the Oscar.

Hey, some friends I've known for years only got 50%. So you didn't do so badly. (I waded my way through Seven Pillars, and any other Lawrence bio I could find, when I was in high school. I was definitely obsessed.)

Now I don't feel so dense. :)

After Seven Pillars I decided to branch out into the Lawrence family. Wow! That lady and the gameskeeper. :D My teacher didn't bat an eye at that book report!

I had no idea about the gameskeeper shenanigans. Fascinating.

I've been researching my facts and it looks like I'm wrong. Somewhere way back then I decided that D.H. was T.E. Lawrence's brother. Now I can't find such info while searching the net. Anyway, D.H. wrote Lady Chatterly's Lover. The first hundred pages were about British society, then the Lady stumbled upon the Gameskeeper. OMG! It was very hot for it's time. :-)

Back to my research...*g*
