![]() It was nice how they were kept separate from one another. Another little detail I enjoyed was how the page numbers were highlighted with a little picture that was iconic to the individual story you were reading. This collection of fairy tales in these interactive editions are so fun! Minalima does an AMAZING job with the illustrations and interactive elements! The artwork is positively gorgeous!

There is a good sister and a bad sister, and the bad sister gets reformed and everybody lives happily ever after. I started off with a sense of Sense and Sensibility as a rather stereotypical novel – very much like a lot of 18th-century novels that I’ve read. I am currently writing a book about rereading, so I’m thinking a lot about what happens when you reread things. ![]() But I’m fascinated by it, because it has changed shape over the years for me as I reread it. ![]() I wouldn’t even say that I loved it as much as I loved Northanger Abbey, which I didn’t put on the list.

His mother also lives in town and the word is that his father, separated from her, may be moving back in. One married daughter lives in town and they worry about her financial situation and that she might be in an abusive relationship. He is in the “sandwich generation” with a wife, whom he loves, who is a school principal, and two daughters. It’s really an academic novel, centered on a 49-year old professor (mid-life crisis?) at a lower-tier university, perhaps a branch campus, in a by-passed town in Pennsylvania. Another good story from Richard Russo – I previously reviewed Empire Falls. ![]() ![]() Here is a word picture of a people who came to these islands as pagans, subscribing to the Germanic heroic code, and yet within 200 years had become Christian to such effect that England was the centre of missionary endeavour and, for a time, the heart of European civilisation.Kevin Crossley-Holland places the poems and prose in context with his skilful interpretation of the Anglo-Saxon world his translations have been widely acclaimed, and of Beowulf Charles Causley has written 'the poem has at last found its translator'. ![]() Most of the greatest surviving poems are printed here in their entirety: the reader will find the whole of Beowulf, The Battle of Maldon, and the haunting elegiac poems. The Anglo-Saxon World introduces the Anglo-Saxons in their own words - their chronicles, laws and letters, charters and charms, and above all their magnificent poems. ![]() |
