    I love that you and your wife spent the evening reading the book together. That's sounds so nice and cosy, even if it was a book about murder 😂

      We did the same with "And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie. There was a gale blowing and we were scared silly 😜 😅

    You have become one of my top channels - educational, tutorial, fascinating, and challenging! I used to speed thru your material because of limited time…….I just can not do that in all your materials, all are so very interesting & and personal value to me, my literary journey and my continuing maturation in learning to truly love reading classics. Well done, very well done!

    Hi! Just wanted to pop on here and say I read this on your recommendation and really enjoyed myself. I always love a whodunit more original than the norm, and massively appreciate one where you can identify the culprit if you pay enough attention, and this book delivers both. I do agree with you it's just short of prize-winning quality, but well worth a read nonetheless.

    FACTOID: In the theatre the profits are called THE NUT. The term comes from the Middle Ages when players traveled by wagons. In the middle of the wagon wheels was the ‘nut’ holding the spokes together. Because actors were not trusted, the town citizens removed a nut from the wheels and only gave it back if no actor had stolen anything and nobody’s wife had been seduced. So it was called. ‘making your nut’.

      “Factoid” means “something that people think is true, but actually isn’t”.

    When I was a kid, I read the Choose Your Own Adventure book, Who Killed Harlowe Thromby? in which the reader is asked to by the future victim to find out who is trying to kill him. I thought there should have been at least one ending in which the reader doesn't fial miserably at this job, and Harlowe Thromby survives, but I guess that would contradict the title.

      It was from my other channel to do with modern books which I'm consolidating into this channel. The focus will still be 90-95% on the Classics but I will add some modern literary works here too, if they are good enough.
      My other channel will be focused on aspects of life in the modern world and how to deal with stress.😀

      Greetings, fellow Tristanite. I could be wrong, but I believe both channels are now merged into one. This is most likely a previously recorded video from before the merger. I think there’s a video where he lets us know his reasons, and where he mentions he’ll upload some previously recorded stuff so it doesn’t go to waste.
