The Horror of Literary Characters

Can you ever begin to imagine the horror that literary characters experience? Doomed to repeat the same old “same-old” with every single reading… thousands, even millions of times, with evermore ahead?

Listen with your heart instead of your brain and you will hear Hamlet shrieking “Must I always and forever be this same wretched creature who lives only in books to be poisoned again and again and again?”

Perhaps it is time for mercy?
