RYL's Book Club

As was mentioned in last month's eZine, we are starting a book club, and here it is.

The book up for discussion this month is A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf.


Hopefully the eZine will be published within the next few days and will contain questions about the book for members to ponder over and discuss in this thread. This thread will be linked from the eZine so, for now, familiarise yourself with the book and watch this space.

The eZine team.

OOh virginia woolf is always good. Unfortunately I can't go to the library, due to the fact that I owe them a *ahem* slight amount of money and so they won't let me use my library card until I pay them back.



You tell me everything's all right
As though it's something you've been through
You think this torment is romantic
Well it's not, except to you

^ The libraries I work for allow you to pay large fines by instalments. Once they get reduced by a certain amount, you can use your card again.

In London you can reserve books from across most of London with no charge, it's called the Consortium. :)

My copy's at my parents. Blah! I'll reserve it when I'm at work today, though.

This sounds good! I'll try and get a hold of a copy. :)



The Mole was bewitched, entranced, fascinated. By the side of the river he trotted as one trots, when very small, by the side of a man who holds one spell-bound by exciting stories; and when tired at last, he sat on the bank, while the river still chattered on to him, a babbling procession of the best stories in the world, sent from the heart of the earth to be told at last to the insatiable sea.
Wind in the Willows.

*yay* I'm excited! Have to wait until I get home so I can get my copy..




(Apparently, according to some story my grandpa likes to tell, Virginia Woolf is a relation of ours... but we can never be quite sure if that's true or not...!)

Ooh this sounds great, I shall have to get a copy of it somehow. So far all of the books I've wanted to read this holidays have been checked out at the library *shakes fist*. Hopefully they'll have a copy of this floating around somewhere.
