Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 80 The Literary Critic's Articles

With Somerset gone, the party continued. Both Ennie and Jenny Norfolk toasted to Kevin one after another, as if they wanted to get each other drunk so that they could be gentle tonight.

But Kevin was not drunk, but Jenny Norfolk got drunk first. This child from an aristocratic family is still young, so he doesn't drink very well. She is not like Enni, who has to socialize everywhere, so she has already practiced her drinking capacity.

Seeing that Jenny Norfolk was drunk, Kevin immediately put his hand on her shoulder. "Miss Jenny Norfolk, are you all right? Maybe you have enough wine tonight."

Jenny Norfolk's head was a little dizzy, and after seeing Kevin support her, she simply laid her head in Kevin's arms. It felt so warm and safe. When Jenny Norfolk's soft body was close to his body, Kevin felt a sense of blood boiling, and he drank some more wine, and the music tonight was so romantic, he was completely intoxicated Under the fragrance of this eighteen-year-old girl.

Kevin also tried to hug Jenny Norfolk with his hands, and then asked, "Miss Jenny Norfolk, are you okay?"

"No! I'm just a little dizzy. Oh, I'm sorry." Jenny Norfolk had a premonition at this time that she had lost her composure. After all, this was a public occasion. But she enjoyed that feeling again, she felt that Kevin and Somerset were too different. This man is full of tenderness and romance, full of talent and humor. As for Somerset, he seemed to have nothing but his royal status.

After Jenny Norfolk got drunk, the banquet ended after half an hour. Ennie and the London Literary Press already had a car, so they went back to the hotel together. And Kevin went back to the community with Jenny Norfolk's car.

"Driver, take Mr. Kevin back to his community first, and then transfer to the house." The drunk Jenny Norfolk said to the driver.

"Okay, Miss Jenny Norfolk." The driver nodded.

Kevin helped the drunk Jenny Norfolk into the Bentley, and the other party also took the opportunity to lean against Kevin. With such a beautiful woman in his arms, Kevin didn't dodge at all, and hugged her directly. The body fragrance of an eighteen-year-old girl made Kevin intoxicated again.

Along the way, Kevin looked at the drunk girl with his eyes, her cheeks became so charming under the stimulation of alcohol. It's a pity that such a good time is always short-lived, and the car soon arrived at Kevin's community.

"Sorry, I'm pressing on your shoulder." After arriving at Kevin's community, Jenny Norfolk got up and said shyly.

"It's okay, as long as you are comfortable. Oh. I'm here, thank you for seeing me off. Good night." Kevin said with a smile.

"Good night. I wish you a sweet dream."

After Kevin got out of the car, Jenny Norfolk seemed to feel that something was missing, and the car became empty.

It was already eleven o'clock in the evening. After taking a shower, Kevin planned to turn on the computer and watch it for ten minutes before going to sleep, but when he turned on the computer, he saw Bella tweeting to him coming information.

"Kevin, will today's signing be a success?"

Kevin is a little ashamed to see this message now. He had thought of calling Bella. But seeing that the time was already very late, it was estimated that the other party had already fallen asleep, so he simply chose to tweet back to the other party:

Thank you Miss Bella for your concern, everything went so smoothly today.

After returning the message to Bella,

Kevin read the news casually, and then fell asleep.

When he woke up the next day, he immediately turned on his computer and went to Twitter to see if Bella had replied to his message. But at this time, Bella's message was not seen, but a tweet --- Is "Wuthering Heights" really worthy of a bestseller?

This article was written by a man named Adams. Adams is a critic expert in the British literary circle, and he has also had a certain status in the literary critic circle for so many years. After hearing that Kevin's new book "Wuthering Heights" was a hit in its first printing, he wrote this review after some thought.

But this time he was not commenting on the quality of the writing and plot of "Wuthering Heights", but on the phenomenon that "Wuthering Heights" sold well in its first printing.

Adams pointed out in the article: The reason why Kevin's "Wuthering Heights" was able to sell well in the first printing is largely because of Bella's publicity effect and people's curiosity. It's not that the writing and plot of the book are really that good. In his opinion, a big sale of a book does not mean anything, and the greatest success is getting good reviews.

Adams also pointed out in the article: As a new writer, although Kevin published his first novel "Jane Eyre" and received a lot of praise, the speed of "Wuthering Heights" is too fast, and the writing and plot must not be able to keep up. Up. This is also normal logic.

He thought: when all curious people buy this book, read it, and finally feel that it is average, they will have a feeling of being cheated. At that time, many people will think that Kevin is a liar, and even think about it Bella's image suffers. Anyway, in Adams' view, "Wuthering Heights" is not worthy of this best-selling show.

After reading Adams' article, Kevin smiled and didn't take it seriously at all. Not only that, he also forwarded this article to his Twitter. It's just that he didn't speak too much language, but used a smiling expression.

Zela has always been depressed about Kevin's "Wuthering Heights", but after reading this article by Adams, she suddenly came to her senses.

"Maybe the answer is what Adams said."

In this regard, she also very much agrees with Adams' views. In order to let more people see this article, she immediately forwarded it, and then smiled triumphantly.

Yes, if readers feel that "Wuthering Heights" is so-so this time, then they will have a feeling of being cheated. This will not only make people think that Kevin is a big liar, but also make the London Literary Publishing House And Bella's image has been lost. After all, they had done a lot of publicity for "Wuthering Heights" before that.

Adams originally had a certain fan base of his own. When his article was published, his fans expressed their support for Adams' point of view.

"I've watched Adams write reviews for five years, and I trust his vision. Maybe Wuthering Heights' first print hit was just a result of Bella's cover, or the crazy promotion of the London Literary Press. That's all."

"Yes, the writing and the plot are the most important. I am not opposed to any popular works. But as Mr. Adams said, the speed of this book is too fast, how can the quality keep up?"

"Mr. Adams's opinion is really unique, but it is very reasonable. Let me tell you, if any novel asks Bella to do the cover, then it will also be a bestseller. It's just the result that depends on the quality of the book. It's just that the time between "Wuthering Heights" and "Jane Eyre" is so short, I can only say that I don't like this book."

But they don't know that those who bought "Wuthering Heights" are watching it seriously at this time, and even a small number of people stayed up late last night to watch it. The reason for all this is not because of curiosity, but because the plot in the book has completely attracted them.
