You're Ulysses!
by James Joyce
Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared
to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do
understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once
brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in
the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you
additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.

I was Anne of Green Gables last time (so not quite as cool as you!) - maybe I should try again...

Anne of Green Gables!
Ha ha ha - I am waaaaay cooler than you!
I am:
"You're To Kill a Mockingbird!
by Harper Lee
Perceived as a revolutionary and groundbreaking person, you have changed the minds of many people. While questioning the authority around you, you've also taken a significant amount of flack. But you've had the admirable guts to persevere. There's a weird guy in the neighborhood using dubious means to protect you, but you're pretty sure it's worth it in the end. In the end, it remains unclear to you whether finches and mockingbirds get along in real life."
I'm happy with that.
Oh no! I am Anne of Green Gables too! This bit freaked me out though, because of course I do spell my name with an E! "You spell your name with an E and you want everyone to know about it." I've never read it, but it doesn't look very cool...
Kellie (or fellow AnnE) - I know it doesn't look the coolest (another reason me and the book are similar!) but it is a lovely story. Honest!
Nik :)
Sorry guys, but I fink I is way coolest (even if I am not sure of the explanation of who I is):
You're 'Love in the Time of Cholera!' by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Like Odysseus in a work of Homer, you demonstrate undying loyalty by sleeping with as many people as you possibly can. But in your heart you never give consent! This creates a strange quandary of what love really means to you. On the one hand, you've loved the same person your whole life, but on the other, your actions barely speak to this fact. Whatever you do, stick to bottled water. The other stuff could get you killed.
Douglas, nice try, but I am still way cooler.
I am Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut, though not having read it, I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing...
