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."

I like Nine Tailors for the images of the flooding.

This is a fantastic essay about a Russian long-distance sled race.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Does anyone have a recommendation for the best English translation of Les Miserables?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Does anyone have a recommendation for the best English translation of Les Miserables?

Don't get the one where they translated the title as The Sad Heads.

Also the cover for that one totally spoils that it's a book about bread.

You guys! I have Discount Armageddon to read on the plane tomorrow! I'm very excited to be finally reading it. (In part because I've had three or four different people tell me I remind them of the Aeslin mice. This baffles me, but I assume it will be clear once I read the book.)
