What's Anna Karenina & The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nightime - doing in that list? Serious novels slumming it amongst the pulp pot-boilers...
I nominated Anna Karenina, since i assumed people would be interested in some good novel reading!

I ask because I listened to Joss Acklands audiobook reading of Screwtape on my flight a few weeks back and it's worth a listen, Joss has this great booming gravely voice that does the material proud.
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

I'll trying so hard to get to the libaury these days to get out these books but my life is to busy, I barely have time for anything. But I'll try and buy some off Amazon, if there are any people recommend.

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...

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