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 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.
Thank you so much for your recommendation. I am reading “Vanity Fair” and I am on chapter six. I really like you and your channel so much, I hope to be watching it for a long time. G.🥰🥰🥰😱🥰😱🥰😱🥰🥰🥰
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💔
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.
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!

@@nathanfoung2347 thanks so much Nathan! She’s a sassy little thing but the love of my life. ❤️
Bummer that the store is closing. Great finds. 😊💙
I read the Gunther Grass book somewhere in the late 70's or early 80's and really liked it.
@@eiketske great to hear. A lot of folks have said the same. 🤓
@@MIDDLEoftheBookMARCH I do understand though the people who didn't like it 🙂

Hope you get a nice small book store near..B Nice..for u ..
The only kind of haul you get from one of those used bookstores that don't really exist anymore. Sad to hear about the closing.
@@tealorturquoise very sad. There are very few used bookstores near me.
