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 425 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 432 Views
Ah, you were talking long term. Okay, fair enough. *NM* Legolas - 15/02/2010 08:11:13 PM 221 Views

Overmoderation can be a bad thing, though Larry - 15/02/2010 09:35:39 PM 463 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 467 Views
Yup. This one. *NM* Rebekah - 15/02/2010 10:05:05 PM 206 Views
