Hello
Hello everyone! I have become interested in 19th century french literature starting with The Three Musketeers, Count of Monte Cristo and Les Miserables. I look forward to discussing the printed word.
Hi, I'm Subby. I haven't been around to show my lovely blue eyes and friendly teeth in the forum for quite sometime. So I thought I drop by and leave some bites![]()
hi everyone (I must apologise for my english first). I hope you enjoy reading. I generally don' t, except for some existential novels such us The Stranger/Outsider (by Camus) or The Castle (by Kafka). Is there anyone who shares the same passion?
I shall introduce myself as a retired academiceocnomist. I am stil reseraching and worlking on my sevent book. I have little nmoretime and urgency now to pursue my hobbies--which incl;ude all th atts but mostly poetry (i have published two books of trnslations), fiction. films amd drama.
I am redaing War and Peace seriously at an dvance age-- to preceed the coming performance of Prokofief's opera at the COC and the film at Cinematheque Ontario in October 2008.
More later. Glad to hesr from others, particularly in the Toronto area

Hey, I'm Brian. I was a member a few years ago and I stumbled back on this site the other day and thought I might join back up. I'm a 22 year old college student stumbling his way through life.

Bon jour,I am a trial lawyer in Ill.,who loves words and War and PEACE which I have read about four times because it is better each time.I found this site to find a two page part of this novel which is very beautifully written and descriptive but has nothing to do with the story.Can anyone tell me where to find it?
Hello everyone! My name is Lynn and I'm so happy to have found a online book discussion forum. I have recently graduated in May with my Bachelor's in Secondary Education English. One of the thing I have missed about school is hearing everyone's input on novels I was reading. I love to hear outside perspectives. Although I typically shy away from being an active member of online communities, I'm hoping to find this one pleasing and addictive enough that I will not follow my usual pattern.
I have always enjoyed reading as far back as I can really remember. My addiction began with the Babysitter's Club way back when. I'm currently in the middle of reading Dracula.
Thanks for reading! I know introductions can sometimes be boring and forced.
Hello thereMy name is Traytray...looking forward to getting to know you all

Welcome aboard, Traytray. Wish you happy moment.
The source of any bad writing is the desire to be something more than a person of sense--the straining to be thought a genius. If people would say what they have to say in plain terms, how much eloquent they would be.

Hi I am from Bangladesh. I am trying to become a full fledged economist one day; currently I am pursuing my Masters in Economics. I have a passion for philosophy and specifically i love the writings of Aldous Huxley and Bertrand Russell. Although I am usually drawn towards subjects like logic physics and mathematics but somehow i have always been captivated by philosophical writings. I am eagerly looking forward to participating in various discussions in this forum![]()
