Reading Prince Caspian

Finally, finally, finished!

Took a very long while to "get into" this book, and even after reading it I can't understand how Disney & Co. managed to get a two-and-a-half-hour film out of it.

I think I see the seeding, in this book, of Susan's eventual fate vis-à-vis her ability to see things without the evidence before her eyes, which I suppose makes sense but is also somewhat depressing.  Maybe she's an analogue for the doubting Apostle, Thomas?  Given the not-at-all-subtle Christian metaphors, who knows?

There's a bunch of stuff I need to revisit, but not yet.  I think I'll give the Disney film a try first.
