Charles Dickens
Our read-aloud these days is "A Christmas Carol," the original tale. Quote of the day from this work:
Dickens' description of the first time Scrooge sees his old pal, Marley's face in the door knocker:
"Marley's face. It was not in impenetrable shadow as the other objects in the yard were, but had a dismal light about it, like a bad lobster in a dark cellar."
Please be so good as to improve upon that, if you will.
"...like a bad lobster in a dark cellar..." LOVE IT! :)
