Dictionary Definition : Laura: Also known as "Solveig", her internet pseudonym, this female specimen of Homo Sapiens founded the Literary Cabinet world. One can spot "Laura," by the fun she has grading papers and drinking coffee, with triple coffee consumption ever since she quit smoking. Like another species, Homo Sapiens Zarasahanous, she enjoys picking at the extreme Twilight fans. This specimen is particularly fond of procrastinating, as most of the other species of the Literary Cabinet Universe are.

Okay, I'm done with the book. I feel a little bit less satisfied than I hoped - the sources Cornwell used are not available for the general public, and I am not quite sure how believeable her theory is after all. Also, I googled a few of the paintings she analysed, and could not find many of them, but I was thinking about getting a pictorial from the library (is "pictorial" the correct word?)...

Any thoughts?

Hi all,

I am currently reading "Portrait of a Killer" by Patricia Cornwell, a non-fictional attempt at discovering the identity of Jack the Ripper. I know that Lynne wants to join me (or has, at least, said so), are there any others who'd like to join? For my part, I feel quite left alone with the book, simply because it is at times so incredibly gruesome, and since very few of the sources that Cornwell uses are publicly available, I also need help deciding whether her claims are plausible or not.

Please use this thread to reply!
