It’s a wonderful read!
I’m dipping into my first foray of Katherine Mansfield’s collected stories.
Wonderfully written and so glad I have discovered them.
@Mary thanks for your feddback, can’t wait to start reading?
@Mary I haven’t heard Katherine Mansfield but will try it too, hope to find them here in Philippines, we have limited sources here.? nice to know new authors and books by the way. Thanks for sharing ?
@Sharmaine you are very welcome.
Hope you find a copy as they are beautifully written.
I loved Cider with Rosie, takes you back to a different time, can be a bit slow at times but very descriptive. It depends if you enjoy this style of writing and the fact that it is an autobiography.
I did this at school, but then English classes were not a happy experience. I ought to try him again, properly this time.
I had few difficulties in literature class and find some teachers rushing us to read. In university, we had Edgar Allan Poe, back then I didnt like him but when I started reading his works again,I finally get the chance to understand and I love it! ? hope you will enjoy it this time ?
Ivanhoe
I’m reading jude the obscure and Salem’s lot just now , undecided what to read next
I’ve just listened to Cider with Rosie on BBC radio 4 extra whilst working. I really enjoyed it! ?
Being a devotee, I’m reading the latest Murakami – Killing Commendatore.
@Tante how is it? I still haven’t read any murakami yet but I’ve heard lots of good things
His earlier work is better. Start with The Wind-up Bird Chronicle, @Sean. It’s far superior to this one, but this is still holding my interest so far!
@Tante thanks I will keep an eye out for it, I’ve got Kafka on the shore on my tbr shelf
@Tante I really liked this book – classic Murakami.
I just started Ben Hur. Slow going in the beginning with stilted language. Hope it gets better
Right now my daughter and I are reading “The Nutcracker” by E.T.A. Hoffman aloud to each other.
@Sharen wow! it sounds wonderful moment with your daughter. ?
