    Hi, my father got me a book called "The Sorrows of Young Werther" by Goethe. Have you heard of it? It's pretty interesting.

    Welcome to Classical Re-education! It’s so good to have you join us! As stated in the main thread, discussion on any book on the list is welcome at any time. There are no deadlines or time restraints on any book or any thread. It’s all meant to be a learning environment. However, if you just want to read along with where I already am, I’m starting Uncle Tom’s Cabin in July. Can’t wait to read your posts!

    I'm not sure about that. I guess you'll have to check! What does Romanian look like? I've never heard of it.

    Thanks for your support!
    I don't know many sudanese artists, actually. But one of our best writers is called Al Tayyeb Saleh, famous for his book Season of Migration to the North. I've read it and reviewed it some time ago. He died a few months ago. If you'd like to read about him: http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/obituaries/articles/2009/03/01/al_tayeb_saleh_at_80_sudanese_novelist/

    He's a great novelist.

    Hello, when I was 6 or 7 my father used to by me Ladybird books, which were children's books (we were living in Kenya at that time). When I was 8, he started buying my abridged Penguin versions of the classics like Jane Eyre, Thomas Hardy and Shakespeare, then I started to become an avid reader. I'm familiar with several classic works since I've read them as abridged novels. Now I'm trying to read those same books as unabridged ones. I didn't start reading at an early age because I was dyslexic when i was very young.

    I'd like to write in the NY Times. I also write book reviews on my blog: http://zawan.wordpress.com . I'd be glad if you drop by.
