"Tale of Two Cities"

Ladies and gents, I made a HUGE mistake: I left my book of "The Tale of Two Cities" in my locker over this fall-break we got, and a test over it is due on Monday. Now, with my stupidity and forgetfulness aside, I have a favor to ask: does anyone know a site that has a fairly good summary over the book? What would also work is if someone could summarize it theirself, but that's less reasonable probably. I just don't want to get a complete 0 on a test in my hardest and most important class, English IV.

Anyone care to help?

have you checked a bookstore for a coles' notes of the book, or something similar?

But couldn't you buy a copy, or go to the library?

(didn't mean for that to sound flippant, BTW, just wondering why this isn't an option)

You could hope for a new Nextel commercial.
Their <i>Romeo and Juliet</i> stayed pretty true to the book, IMO.

1) The hours it's open are very bad, as I have had football practice everyday when it's open. It also hurts that it's not open on weekends.
2) Our library is, say, very limited...even for a classic like this book, it's just not that likely, though it could be.

Buying a copy is pretty much out of the question, because the test is Monday and it's now Friday night, not to mention I got about $10 and I doubt that'd be enough to buy it. Furthermore, going out of town that far to pick it up would use alot of my money in gas.

Ah, Google...better be a life-saver, heh. *prays*
