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."

Dog is my co-pilot.

My BiL has a new book out last month. It's Merchant of Death: Money, Guns, Planes, and the Man Who Makes War Possible by Douglas Farah and Stephen Braun. (SB is the BiL.) It's about international weapons trade, specifically Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout. Steve and his co-author have an in store appearance at Politics and Prose in Georgetown (Washington, DC) on Thursday. Come on down if you're in the area!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

What's the source of "Methinks the lady doth protest too much"?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Gonna guess "Macbeth" or "othello" Somebody smarter will probably get it before me.(smacks forehead) Of course, and I *know* Hamlet.(Not like I want to date Judith, but...) I'm just a hoople.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Macbeth

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Speaking of, I'm looking to begin assembling a Shakespeare library, but I don't know what edition to get. I'm looking for something with individual plays, rather than the Big Book O' Shakespeare approach. Some degree of annotation, mostly of the "here's what this word means" sort.

Does anyone have a favorite that they'd recommend?
