Buffistas

We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Except for Crime and Punishment and Madame Bovary (because they are translations, maybe?), the first two sets are available at Amazon. You can see what they contain here: [link] and [link] Then there are 2 more Dickens, A Christmas Carol and Other Christmas Writings and A Tale of Two Cities (which I would love if the scarves weren't orange), Dante's Inferno, and the others I linked to. I think that is it for titles so far.

Note: The Amazon editions don't have the "set" volume number on the spine.

I don't really *need* another edition of Dracula. I don't I don't I don't. And if I was going to buy another copy, it would probably be this one: [link]

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Ok, 35 pages in and i think i might have found indications of conflict to come. Shall continue reading.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Those cloth-bound books are gorgeous. Really gorgeous.

Anyway, if I'm going to buy another copy of book(s) I already own, then the fancy leatherbound edition of the first three Vampire Chronicles is first on my list.

(I need my cliche card stamped again, don't I?)

I seriously covet Crime and Punishment.

Is that available in Canada? Because it's not on Amazon here.

No, it's not available, hence the covetousness.

I have to assume it's a rights/permissions issue for the translations.
