| Harriet Beecher Stowe |
I've been listening to a lot of Mark Twain lately there. When I went to find something new of his to listen to, I discovered that I could find not one, not two but six of the books on the How Well Read Are You-American Literature Edition list that I posted the other day. So if you're looking for an easy way to knock a few of those pesky classics off the list, head on over there.
I'm quite enjoying Harriet Beecher Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin." I had no idea the old gal was such a wit. And I knew that the book was something of a treatise against slavery, but this is biting social commentary at it's best.
Sounds great - I may have to check that out!
ReplyDeleteI loved Uncle Tom's Cabin and I just mentioned it in a comment over at Musings of a Bookish Kitty. How odd! I must be telepathic :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I am always looking for something to listen to while working.
Now I'm curious...what do you do that you get to listen to books while you work?? I'm feeling envious. I'm neck-deep in editing my novel and don't even have the energy to READ! Makes it kind of hard to be part of a reading community!
ReplyDeleteLol, Ti. We are simpatico!
ReplyDeleteThe apartment was great - so great that we got it! We filled out the application and already paid the security deposit - we move in on October 1st!!!!
ReplyDeleteYep, I got reading lists for my Finnish and English classes for the next two years. :D
ReplyDeleteI will have to go and check this out. Thanks for the recommendation! And classics aren't pesky! They are challenging. :P
