As ...I feel your pain, myninjacockle, I really do. As a recovering Arts (Major English Texts) graduate, I could barely endure 'Heart of Darkness' and had to read both 'The Iliad' and 'The Odyssey'.<BR/><BR/>Ulysses has sitting on my bookshelf for years, still unread, and 'Atonement' was given back to my Dad after I sat through the underwhelming film version. Others that look good on the pine planks but have yet to be either a) enjoyed; b) finished, or even c) started, include:<BR/><BR/>*A suitable boy - Vikram Seth (scared by the size)<BR/>*Three Patrick Whites - agree with you, he's about as approachable as a Seven-eleven bandit with a syringe<BR/>* Some Peter Goldsworthys - I don't just 'get' him.....<BR/><BR/>That's why blog-reading is so much fun!Kath Locketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09677312773827236567noreply@blogger.com
