Schoolish: "The Anatomy of Satire", Gilbert Highet, Princeton, 1967. , and John Clarke, The Howard Miracles. God John Clarke is an absolute genius.

Non-schoolish: picked up a copy of Oliver Twist/Great Expectations/ A Christmas Carol from a nearby shelf for an idle read, so it appears to be Dickens time.

Finished George Eliot's Middlemarch last night... left me sobbing. I hate the day/s after you finish a really powerful book, because I generally need to read before going to bed at night, and I don't like to start a fresh book when my mind's still turning over the previous one. So I'll spend the next few nights flicking through already read pages of Middlemarch and reminiscing before I can bring myself to start another book...

I know, but like I said, this is the reading room! Plus the one in Entertainment is like 29 pages long....

Btw, I'm reading Frankenstein too. The introduction in my book takes upapprox. 1/3 of it and it's really boring me!
-------------
I'm also reading LotR and Dragon of Autumn Twilight, the first book in Dragonlance Chronicles.
