I contributed my fair share in the past, but have
burned out on it. There's definitely material to be
analyzed, but I think care should be taken not to take
too biased a POV from the outset. That's easier said
than done.
Besides, I'd like to hear what you've got to say about
_Watership Down_. I was fascinated by the animated
movie when I first watched it long ago. I'd like to
rewatch it sometime. I've got two books here,
_Watership Down_ and _Tales from Watership Down_
collecting dust. My recollection is that it's a way of
looking at human society, using rabbit warrens as
analogies.
Didn't the rabbits have some sort of creation myth?
It's been a while since I gave the Watership story
much thought.
