Day 12: Pride and Prejudice
For Poor Classics Students Everywhere
Mundane gossip
somehow considered a classic.
Mundane gossip
with spats of meaning, it’s a toss-up
between significance and plastic.
Nothing in it more than static,
Mundane gossip.
(2014)
This is day 12 of my month long Rondelet marathon! I wrote this one as a criticism of the classic novel Pride and Prejudice, which is a criticism of life in the Romantic Period. While I understand that mundane, trivial lives of the characters is INTENTIONAL, and part of her artistic criticism, I don't understand why I had to suffer through it too.
