Come back to St Andrews!
Well done and interesting
Forster always sounds super appealing to me but I've yet to read any of his books. I've had Maurice sitting on my shelves for a few years now. One day...
I just finished The Summer Book by Tove Jansson, which is an excellent summer book unsurprisingly haha. A series of vignettes about an elderly artist and her young granddaughter all set on a small island in the Gulf of Finland. Ended up reading it more as a collection of short stories -- slowly and one chapter/vignette at a time. The stories come alive on a whole other level that way, with all their humour and little insights.
“A Passage to India” caught my interest in this video, certainly one I have heard of but not read or seen movie. Think I will check into it. Finished listening to “Mysteries of Adolpho” recently so need another one to listen to.
Think you will ever do another viewers Q &A video?
Give it a try, it's definitely worth the read! What did you think of "Mysteries of Udolpho"? It's a long one, but I enjoyed it. If you haven't read "The Italian" by Radcliffe I'd recommend; it's more succinct and my favourite of hers.
I suppose I could do, channel did hit an anniversary the other day (maybe 4th, I can't remember). Not a bad time to do it I suppose!
@@JoshuaJClarkeKelsall I like “Mysteries of Adolpho” I could certainly see the themes she started in the book compared to a lot of other 19th century of that genre. It was hard to follow the plot at times and remember everything, sorta like Shakespeare just need to get your feet wet and get through it, then go back re-read/listen to it again. I will look around for The Italian., her books aren’t well known in America, I was in right spot at right time when I found Mysteries of Adolpho here in Kansas😀 hope you do a Q&A again sometime
@@JoshuaJClarkeKelsall just read synopsis for The Italian, definitely sounds like a book I would like!!
