My three favorites and ones that I still read are.
1. Beowulf
2. Canterbury Tales
3. Don Quixote
I went overboard at the charity shop's book sale but there was a lot more choice than usual on the English book shelves. I think someone (probably American) must have moved away.
I left all the autobiographies of US politicians and business people and all the romances for others....
I‘m ready to be done with this book. It‘s literally too big.
pickIn 2012 anthropologists starts opening six coffins in Winchester Cathedral. Winchester is the old city of kings & queens. Who are the people mentioned on the coffins and how many people are in them?
Jarman looks into who they were and the time they were living in. This is the time when England was gathered into one nation, the time of the Viking invasions.
As a Norwegian it was interesting to read about the Vikings from another point of view.
Recent acquisitions:
📖 The Lindisfarne Gospels by Janet Backhouse
📖 7 ½ Lessons About the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett
