[edit] Plot synopsis

An encyclopedia article about a work of fiction should concentrate on the real-world aspects of the work: how it was received, what its influences were, how it influenced other works, etc. There's a little bit of that here, but mostly this page is a plot synopsis. Not only is that unencyclopedic, it's a copyright violation. Please remove the detailed synopsis and leave just a brief plot summary, and focus more on the book's role in the real world. See WP:WAF for more information. —Angr 12:32, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Not having gotten a response, I'm doing it myself. —Angr 04:08, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Done it for you.... but the main plot summary is still too long for WP:WAF oh well. Madmedea 18:54, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Changes

i also changed this article beacuse it really annoys me that nothing ever makes sense. I changed the article, especially the section discussing the plot to better meet the Wikipedia standards. I also removed most to the references to the movie based on the book. I tought the they were unnecessary and ill-suited to an article about the book. I moved them to a seperate article devoted to the movie. Jahunta07 08:31, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

When I read this article, I got really confused with all the names. I don't think they are assigned correctly, leading to confusion on who is doing what in the plot. For examply, it says that Cathy dies with her father, or at least seems to say that, when in fact she is one of the main characters.
