REVISED reading schedule for Cervantes. It is assumed you have read the first 14 chapters of the first book.

We will adopt a pace of 3 weeks on/1 week off, with an average reading of 50pp during the 'on' weeks. You can use the weeks off to rest/pursue other things, or you can use them to catch up, or you can just plow on ahead.

It's hoped that this more leisurely pace will engage more people with Western Literature's first novel, and that it will inspire more discussion.

4/1-4/7, B1 C15-20 (50pp)
4/8-4/14, B1 C21-25 (52pp)
4/15-4/21, B1 C26-30 (54pp)
4/22-4/28, WEEK OFF
4/29-5/5, B1 C31-34 (47pp)
5/6-5/12, B1 C35-40 (47pp)

Thanks for the updates Brian, particularly Don Quixote. I am up to chapter 6 and should get caught up soon. I am glad to get a chance to join into the discussion.

As for the other changes to the group, it will be interesting to see how things go.
