hey, new here... and new to the whole 'reading' thing to. Among the books I've read this year, I definately love 'Suite Francaise', and 'I dreamed of Africa'. For some reason they made me want to LIVE! How about you?

I moved to Brasil, recently, so I am getting acquainted with indigenous literature: "Dom Casmurro" by Machado de Assis, and "Confessions" by Darcy Ribeiro.
An advice: get your hands on "Dom Casmurro" right away, it is a masterpiece.

PS: I created a spam free community, Arts and Literature, what about migrating there?

what's 'great expectations' about?..dont think I've heard of it. The passion really is a GOOD bk... reading Bill Gates 'Business at the speed of thought' now. It's cool, but reads abit like a manual.. which makes sense, I guess.

ive read it, its by charles dickens, y'no the famous character pip? yep thats him.
a guys parents are dead, sister dies eventually, and so he's left with her husband and trains as a blacksmith.
as it turns out, his sister was murdered. he helps a prisioner who has escaped but is recaptured ina graveyeard in his childhood. years after this he gets his 'great expectation' he gets a fortune from an anonymous donate. this money continues to come every month or so without his knowing who it is.
he's exposed to pain, loss, betrayal, defeat, friendship and situations he may ponder upon but can never change during his life, to find out the one who gave him his great expectation was the prisioner from years before. many more stories run through this but it would simply take far too long to explain.

Hello y'all,
Just found this "Under The Milkwood : Dylan Thomas" in a second hand bookshop.
It might look like a Broadway's script but I kinda like it.
