Comments on severe reduction of size of article

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I realized I severely shortened the article, mainly because the detailed recounting of the plot isn't generally encyclopedic. I think the article is now at a point where it can grow. Might I suggest to the original editor that a listing of the various characters in the book, with small descriptions and their importance to the plot might be useful? That way a lot of the effort expended in the original lengthy plot synopsis could be repackaged in a way to lead the reader of the article to determine whether or not to get the book and read it! --Quartermaster (talk) 17:13, 19 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
