slight system overdrive
This months book is Wide Sargasso Sea, by someone whose name I've deliberately forgotten

That was topper!
Really enjoyed the discussion, although I wasn't feeling the optimism either, Zora - sorry
The bleakness of our miserable human condition was forced home by the failure of every single character to forge a meaningful connection with another human being. Even the ones that had meaningful relationships with ideals or art (the Doc, Jake and Mick) failed to use them and fulfil themselves. And there were so many false starts - Mick and Harry nearly achieving a true friendship until dumb old sex got in the way and Mick's little brother with the singular personality ends up withdrawing into himself after loving someone a little too much (although she deserved a bullet really)
So being lent an introduction to Humanism by onemonkey was a fitting end to that meeting
But dammit she can write! Singer and Mick are now favourite characters that I'll remember for years to come.
So onto Jean Rhys - and Brainy back to his curmudgeonly self . I'll quickly re-read my copy and someone can borrow if they want? I think it's a pretty short book.
(Btw - I just told Dub about that Henson tribute film and nearly started crying at work onemonkey. That's twice in a week that puppets have made me tearful)
