I tried to start a Byatt book a few years ago and never got very far. Not sure why...couldn't even tell you which one it was anymore.
Awww. Possession is excellent, if you're looking to try again. I especially enjoy the fact that it's essentially about lit grad students realizing that deconstruction and Freudian analysis are both ridiculous, and thumbing their noses at the academic establishment.
But if you can't get into the book, the movie wasn't half-bad either.
