Over Christmas I splurged (and went broke at the same time) bought every single Orwell book he ever wrote.  Going to read all of them after I finish this class.

  1984

The Road to Wigan Pier

Keep the Aspidistra Flying

Down and Out in Paris and London

Homage to Catalonia

Burmese Days

  Already have read Animal Farm

    Edit:

Plus I've got 3 Pierre Trudeau books to read, The Communist Manifesto, and finish up reading all of  Erich Maria Remarque's books (All Quiet on the Western Front writer) and maybe some Hemmingway.

well class is the internets so have I been discussing the quotes in my head yes.  Shylocks I'm a jew speech comes up a lot. Next book is Frankenstein.

  My favourite quote is from Antonio in the first act: "I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano, A stage where every man must play a part, And mine is a sad one.

  love that quote.

My favourite lines from The Merchant of Venice are those which begin

  "The moon shines bright: in such a night as this..."
