I'm taking an upper division class on British Literature, and we learned about W.B. Yeats and his obsession with an actress and activist named Maud Gonne, who did not reciprocate. It lasted for YEARS. So later, he proposed to her daughter. Because that makes sense. (The daughter also did not accept.) And I did not share my observation that basically, Jacob Black did the same thing in the Twilight series.

LauraBrook I didn't know that about Yeats either - and hah! So true about Twilight! 8y
Born.A.Reader So true! And as an avid Twilight fan (don't judge lol) it infuriated me that Jacob did that. 8y
Jhullie That totally creeped me out and kind of ruined the Twilight series for me. 8y
EloisaJames (Putting on my professor hat), you should have shared it! I never thought about it, but you're right. 8y
