Welcome to the Learning English Through Literature Blog!

This is a space for you to exchange ideas, opinions and feelings about the books we are looking at and the ones you have chosen to present, perhaps even recommend some new ones.

As we only have bi-weekly classes this is an ideal place to meet and to relate your reading experiences between classes. Hopefully the posts here will also add to the richness of the discussions in class and provide a jumping off point for areas of discussion we might otherwise have overlooked.

Basically, the more you post, the more useful the blog.

So get writing!

Hi everyone! http://www.randomhouse.co.uk/readersgroup/qanda0309.htm

This is the first post of many to come (I hope). As a way of getting us started this is a link to an interview with Mark Haddon (The Curious Incident) in which he answers readers questions about his book.

Please read it through and make any comments you like.

From now on I'd like you to search out some information on the authors/books we will be looking at and post it here - that way we can all be a bit more informed. So if you can find something on Ms Sparks before our next session, please put it up here.

Also, as we discussed this would be a great place to post relevant sections from the book you are going to present, North and South next week with Mat, for example - so let's see how it works.

Okay,

Happy reading,

Oliver
