One step ahead of you, Greg Larry Send a noteboard - 15/02/2010 08:04:49 PM
I am full of hope that this will be an excellent start to the Russian Book Club. So many wonderful national literatures out there that people hear about but don't necessarily read. Maybe this will be the start of something really good and people decide to explore other national literatures. British, French, etc


If I could get 2-3 people who've read works by Latin Americans/Spanairds like Roberto Bolaño to participate, I think the Spanish-language part of this could be covered.

As for the French literature, perhaps the Dumas discussion might have scarred some for life? :P

Two book clubs is probably enough for now, considering our member count. Legolas - 15/02/2010 08:01:43 PM 353 Views
Tom and I have a year long plan. I don't have plans after that year is done. The Shrike - 15/02/2010 08:09:22 PM 360 Views
Ah, you were talking long term. Okay, fair enough. *NM* Legolas - 15/02/2010 08:11:13 PM 188 Views

I don't think Rebekah is saying you shouldn't go ahead and post your Bolaño discussions. Legolas - 15/02/2010 10:00:11 PM 375 Views
Yup. This one. *NM* Rebekah - 15/02/2010 10:05:05 PM 175 Views
