I finished Ike, An American Hero and also read The Great Gatsby
March was mostly taken up with Middlemarch but I also got through a few plays:
Edward II (Marlowe), The Jew Of Malta (Marlowe), A Woman of No Importance (Wilde).
Thats pretty good for me, I usually manage much less but its one of my new years resolutions to read more so I'm making an effort.
Interesting to see what everyone read...
My addition to this thread:
The Dwarf Per lagerkvist-- found the dwarf annoying as hell but finally saw the allegories of World War... i'm a bit slow with these things
Brighton Rock Graham Greene... vivid imagery--- flew through it, gripping to the finallast sentence.
Actually, yeah I think i only read two books. But aye I'm a student and have other things to do :-)
Après tout, je suis con. (Breathless)
