Teaser Tuesdays! (02.08.11)
It's that time again...this weekly book meme is hosted by Mizb from Should Be Reading and anyone can play along. You know the drill!
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) ?teaser? sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn?t give too much away! You don?t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
I put aside D.H. Lawrence's Son and Lovers for the time being in order to read more from Mrs. Muriel Spark who is severely under-appreciated as one of the great authors of the 20th century. My teaser this week comes from her novella The Driver's Seat:"One might be killed crossing the street, or even on the pavement, any time, you never know. So we should always be kind" (55). This quote by the female protagonist lacks context but suffice it say, Lise is proving to be an utterly strange and fascinating character.
