"I read that line. I'm the French Lieutenant's Whore! What's it to you?"
I love The Collector (both the book and the movie). Sorry to hear he's gone.
"Fowles's success in the marketplace derives from his great skill as a storyteller," wrote Ellen Pifer in the "Dictionary of Literary Biography." "Remarkably, he manages to sustain such effects at the same time that, as an experimental writer testing conventional assumptions about reality, he examines and parodies the traditional devices of storytelling."
my company publishes the Dictionary of Literary Biography....
