Literature
I missed the last four Spin events hosted by the Classics Club so its time to finally participate in one of them. The challenge this time around is to list 20 books left to read from the Classics Club Challenge, which will then become my Classics Spin list. A random number (between 1-20) will be selected on Monday by members running the event and then it is up to participants to read the book corresponding with the chosen number by April 2. Sounds like a hoot! Or it could totally backfire and I have to end up reading one of those intimidating novels on my list like Middlemarch by George Eliot, Swann's Way by Proust or The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoeyevsky. Ok, here we go:
- Authors (chronological By Date Of Birth)
Authors: Chaucer to Shakespeare Chaucer, Edmund Spenser, Sir Philip Sidney, William Shakespeare Authors: Donne to MiltonJohn Donne, Ben Jonson, John Webster, John Milton Authors: Bunyan to Gray John Bunyan, Daniel Defoe, Jonathan Swift, Alexander Pope,...
