    I've been watching this guy's videos for the last while, I must say I really enjoy them! They're pretty hilarious and he's pretty informative as well, my personal favourite was the 1984 episode (it being one of my favourite books of all time) but I thought the To Kill a Mockingbird one was very well done too, especially his using
    Jem's broken arm as a metaphor for Civil Rights in the States at that time...
    (I don't think that's particularly relevant to the end of the novel but I thought I'd use the spoiler bar just in case... especially as that particular book was completely spoiled for me when I was reading it at 16 and my aunt's husband strolled on over and gave me a brief synopsis of the novel, totally ruining the ending for me!!)

    He's hilarious. I wonder if he was inspired by 'the wire' episode where they discuss 'The Great Gatsby'.

    It looks as if he was. Much better than reading a stuffy critique. :D
