Merry Christmas 3sparrow!

Hello Three Sparrows,
Hope all is well.
I wanted to let you know that I finished Solzhenitsyn (gosh, that name is difficult to type) and I am nearly finished with Conrad. It is difficult to find appreciable amounts of time to read.

I'm slowly making my way through Conrad and Solzhenitsyn. Work consumes so much time, but I am just past the halfway point in both. I find the two books an interesting juxtapostion; one that anticipates revolution and the other focusing on the human suffering as a result of that eventual revolution.

It worked !
I now see your comments.
Trust me, I am quite the green horn when it comes to modern techn gadgets.
I finished Dostoevsky for the time being and I am now reading Conrad's- "Under Western Eyes" and Solzhenitsyn's "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich"

Stopping by to say hello.
I believe I know why your comments aren't showing up at my end.

Hm, I guess I'm not quite sure how the comments work, I will have to look into that. Thanks for pointing that out.
Anyway, I think you will have a lot of fun reading Dostoevsky, he is my favorite author and I have read all his books but one. Unfortunately, the thing with to read lists is that they always tend to get longer instead of shorter.
