Very interesting. It is interesting to compare the reviews of Great Expectations and Les Miz. They correctly called Great Expectations a masterpiece, but the Les Miz review was simply awful. They spent half of the review complaining about how the author was paid too much for the book and how the poor publisher had to suffer so much trying to sell it. And then they attack the book for trying to replace the bible (!!!) for being too nice to the poor and unfortunate and being dangerous for the undeveloped minds of ordinary people. And then they say: "The bigotries of virtue are better than the charities of vice." Unfortunately, the author of that review probably did not live to see the second world war and realize how wrong he was about that.
