I nominated Anna Karenina, since i assumed people would be interested in some good novel reading! yes

Also - you might want to try "Screwtape proposes a toast" - the not-quite-really-a-sequel.
after reading your post I went to see on amazon if I could see about the audio tapes..they mentioned C.S. Lewis's biting satire received a 1999 Grammy nomination for best spoken-word performance with voice of John Cleese! I bet thats superb as well..I defiantly will go to library and see if I can get either of the audio sets.

I have looked for Screwtape proposes a toast around here at local stores and library,no luck. c.s. lewis's writing style compels me.

I made a c.s. lewis thread here c.s. lewis~Narnian Chronicles

Well, since the poll is closed... I guess it's safe to ask: which version shall we discuss, the original or uncut version of The Stand? Looking forward to reading through this again. It'll be good exercise considering its ties to the Dark Tower series...

sorry I'm late..I'd say thats up to the discreation of the reader since..some may be able to only get one version or the other...

I would prefer we all read the the uncut version,but I wouldn't want any one to be excluded..

btw everyone..incase you haven't seen the poll the stand wins! yay!
