*What book are you reading ?

[Fictionist]

Robert Fagles' translation of Virgil's 'The Aeneid', which is proving to be a very dull read indeed. The only enjoyable part thus far has been Book Six, where you realise just how much Virgil influenced Dante.

Milan Kundera's The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Its absolutley stunning

Beyond Black by Hilary Mantel. First one of hers I've read, and very impressed. Although the bits with the homeless bloke are a bit tedious.

 

[Barking_Mad]

Dostoevsky - The Devils

typical Dostoevsky slow burner........
