Om mit bibliotek Reflects the major interests throughout my life.

Until January 2007, the books listed here were strictly those I currently own. I have now modified my practice and added to my account books I have read before but do not own, tagged appropriately as @NOT OWNED and with a tag to indicate the circumstances, e.g. "read as a child", "sold on eBay" or "borrowed from library". Until March 2008 I also included wishlist books, tagged @WISHLIST, for practical reasons so that when reading a Talk thread I could just click on a book and add it; but now I have decided that this is too tenuous a link to such books and I have deleted them. It hasn't take me long to make up the numbers again through new acquisitions though.

Thank you so much john257hopper. I'm so glad I saw your initial post: I doubt I would have heard about this otherwise. I've never been enticed to read any of Follett's other books because their subject matter didn't really interest me. But I thought "Pillars" was great. I was living in London at the time I read it, so I made pilgrimages (so to speak) to a few of the places mentioned in the book (like Winchester). Really looking forward to the new one and I'm wondering what will be the "anchor" that holds it together (like the cathedral in the original).

Thanks again,

It was a pleasure to browse your library. We share some interests, although not so many books ...

Welcome to Books Compared. We share an interest in the best of the novels set in ancient Rome. Colleen McCullough's First Man in Rome etc., and Steven Saylor's Gordianus mysteries. I see you have Graves' I Claudius on your to-be-read list. A comparison review between Graves and one of McCullough's or Saylor's books would be interesting. Of course, whatever you feel inspired to contribute will add to our reading pleasure!

Hi John,
Thanks for your response. I"m surprised that you haven't read Graves yet! Lucky you, you are in for treat! They are a good read. I just get irritated with graves for finishing the last volume in such a cavalier fashion. Do let me know what you think of it when you get around to reading it.
Have you read Dumas's 'Acte'? It's little known and I'm not sure how available it is in Englibook to your toppling TBR pile?) :)

hi just wanted welcome you to the Compared Books group. Seems like we share a lot of interests in common, especially Roman history and WWII.
I've often looked at the Colleen McCullough books on the shelves in bookstores and wondered if they were worth reading, but will defiantely get involved in them after reading your reviews. Robert Graves, irritates me somewhat, and Alan Massie is a bit too dry for my taste. Henry Sfgbvuiwgfebnugivfpwqcdewfprgn, (the author of 'Quo Vadis' with the unpronouncable and unspellable name) seemd to get the balance betwen decadence and politics just right.)
I read your review of Haggard's 'She' and it brought to mind this poem by Auden:

Sir Rider Haggard
Was completely staggered
When his bride to be
Announced: 'I am SHE'.

Murr.

Glad to find another Colleen McCullough Rome fan. I've read the whole series and find it wonderful and enlightening. Some better than others, but even the slow ones, better than others I've read.

i saw this on listed on the random books listed from your library: "All the Russians" by Jeffrey Gibian. what's it about?

skrevet af salerie kl. 6:09 pm (EST) den Nov 13, 2006

Just wanted to say I enjoyed your review of Quo Vadis: a story I've seen in film many times, and the original of which I've not read. Thanks...
