Mundane Clouds

That time of the year again, this time it is to come to grips with Realism, and Fantasy in literature. For the next few weeks Realism rules the roost:-

Thomas Hardy: Far From the Madding Crowd
Bathsheba wants her head testing - but, unlike Hardy's Tess, at least she gets it right, eventually,

Edith Wharton: Custom of the Country
Quite honestly I would be better employed watching paint dry.

Ali Smith: Hotel World
Can anyone make sense of this book?

Edmund Blunden: Undertones of War
For someone with a love of the WW1 poets this really was a find.

Arundhati Roy; The God of Small Things
Nope, couldn't get my head around this one - hopefully the course book will make it clear.

I know, I've probably offended some - whatever!
