Reading Globally

Beskrivelse: "There is no frigate like a book/
To take us lands away... " - Emily Dickinson

This group is for readers who, for whatever reason, endeavor to explore the world through great fiction. We don't exclude nonfiction discussion entirely, but we are primarily a fiction group.

If you are a compulsive literary traveler, you've come to the right place!
