Dianne, are you on Litsy, this might be a good one to host on Litsy and here. I’ve read it before and I have a lot going on this month so not sure about a reread at this point.

I was planning on reading this one but life has swallowed me up. I may try and get to it by November.

It's always interesting to compare translations and formats. If you are reading the quarterly read, which translation and format have you chosen?

Pip | 1822 comments I have the Penguin classics version translated by John Richardson. It has notes, which I am sure I will need!

I bought a Kindle version translated by Edith Grossman.

Gail (gailifer) | 2174 comments I also have the Edith Grossman translation and am reading the e-book but I am looking for a paper copy to cover with post-it notes.

I think we should do some dividing up the book for the 3 months. Is anyone interested in Litsy posts?


message 11: by Dianne (new)

Dianne | 225 comments Wonderful glad we have a good crew! I’m happy to coordinate with someone helping with Litsy, if anyone is game! I’ll start posting tomorrow. Do we want a reading schedule?

Gail (gailifer) | 2174 comments I post on LItsy so I can post and start some hashtags. Let me know if you want to be tagged also.

Gail (gailifer) | 2174 comments Dianne, I am not sure of your name in Litsy. I can tag you if you give it to me. Also, do you want me to post anything specific on there? A schedule or a question? Just let me know.
