    Ooh, D. J. Enright did the revised translation of In Search of Lost Time that I read last year. I think that bodes well for The Oxford Book of Friendshp!😀

    Great haul. "Tin Drum" has been on my TBR like forever, I watched the movie in my teens and was blown away so this is a timely reminder i need to read it soon. Go well Kim, oh and your grand daughter is as cute as a button.

    I read the Gunther Grass book somewhere in the late 70's or early 80's and really liked it.

    I have that exact Pushkin book, haven't read it yet. But I have read several English translations of Eugene Onegin which is a work of genius, simply incredible. You probably are aware Pushkin's great-grandfather was kidnapped from Africa and given as a gift to Peter the Great! "The Tin Drum" is crazy, nutty, simply bonkers.

    Great haul although I’m sad your bookshop is closing. I have the Oxford Book of Friendship and really enjoy dipping into it, hope you do too.

    Second Reading sounds very interesting. Although I do not read fantasy typically, Wolfblade does sound very good. It is sad that this bookstore has to close. Hopefully the books will find a new home. Take care.

    All of your choices are great, but the one I find most intriguing is the Oxford Book on Friendship. That could be interesting for sure. I’m sad about the bookstore closure though💔

    Granddaughter (?) is adorable! Recently one early Saturday morning Turner Classic Movies showed the movie made
    from The Tin Drum. It was disgusting,shocking ,and definitely X rated!!! Should not have been shown Sat. morning as young people are looking forward to
    cartoons and comedies. I sent my comments to TCM telling them how disappointed I was in their programming. So, be prepared and good luck with it!
