I hope you do read it...I think you'd enjoy it. And it's a nice quick read, too, which is sometimes nice. :)Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429881953804634592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-74511223772777927542009-02-01T22:29:00.000-05:002009-02-01T22:29:00.000-05:00Oh I really need to read this one!

Speaking of racism in older books, I started The Time Machine today, and as much as I'm enjoying it I couldn't help but be a bit put off with the talk of "civilized gentlemen" vs "savages". Not that I hold it against Wells, of course...he was a product of his time.<BR/><BR/>I finished a book on Racism a few days ago that I'd sure you'd enjoy! But I'll avoid hijacking the comments and tell you all about it later :PAna S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-74038140668571334782009-01-30T12:14:00.000-05:002009-01-30T12:14:00.000-05:00I never know how to read plays in the best way.And...I never know how to read plays in the best way.<BR/><BR/>And as far as the racism goes...a bookstore in Krasnodar, Russia had a small English section, and they carried this one. Except it was called by the original title-I almost had a heart attack when I saw Ten Little N* staring at me from the shelf.Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-46427367933723069722009-01-30T11:26:00.000-05:002009-01-30T11:26:00.000-05:00I haven't read this in years, but I loved it when ...I haven't read this in years, but I loved it when I did!! <BR/><BR/>Don't really remember anything racist, but then again, I was probably in school when I read it. I don't think I picked up on stuff like that back then.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055676171075203563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-70977472684365579932009-01-30T09:24:00.000-05:002009-01-30T09:24:00.000-05:00I reread your last paragraph a couple of times bec...I reread your last paragraph a couple of times because the last book I read made me feel the same way. The good news in that is that at least we (personally) feel that way. Right? We (in general) have come a long way! <BR/><BR/>I'm so glad you enjoyed this . . . again. :)Thoughts of Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05572910467988997432noreply@blogger.com
