Not really. Candide has 8 votes at the moment... but with still 11 hours to go, no one can tell!

I was wondering about that. If the book and the opera are one in the same. Thank you for clarifying that.Originally Posted by Etienne
However, that doesn't really qualify for a "period" composer. The composer for me, has to have actually composed peices with in the time frame of the author. Yes, I am that MUCH of a geek
I would love to vote, but I am afraid I only have 30 some odd posts so far. Lemme see what I can do to get enough to cast my vote before the deadline...

Thought I could be more picky and choosey about my posts...
But at this point beggars can't be choosers

I'll help by asking a pointless question: which book are you going to vote for?

hehe you are the best..
I am probably going to vote for Papillon since that was my original thought.
I have since picked up Candide, Madame Bovary and currently reading Hunchback of Notre Dame.
I ordered Papillon since Borders didn't have it at the time. I just got the call that my order is in. I think I only have two more posts left

Thank you all for your votes!
In May we will be reading Papillon.
(Two of the votes cast for Candide have been disregarded).

Why would votes be disregarded? Not that I mind as I read Candide last month anyway.
Yay!
But I'm curious, if two of the votes for Candide don't count, wouldn't that make it a tie? How is a tie decided?
Calvin: You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.
I might not be able to participate now that Papillon has won. It's not in any of the local libraries (!) and I can't afford to buy books right now, unfortunately.
Phew! I am counting my blessings that you are not, Virgil!As it has been stated earlier in the thread, one user has been banned and another one has less than 50 votes that is required.In case of a tie, I usually flip a coin and decide.
Before anyone suggest that I have chosen the book I would like to read, please take the time to check out some of the previous votes that ended in a tie; you will find that I chose a book I had not voted for - on more than one occassion.
