] (movie opens on New Year's Eve)
] The English Patient
] Tom Jones (before the A&E series is shown in the US)
] Tenant of Wildfell Hall
] Northanger Abbey
I would love to do 'Oscar and Lucinda'. I would also love to read 'Bliss' by Carey, 'Cloud Street' by Tim Winton, and 'The Shipping News' by Annie Proux. With this group, any of those would be so much fun.
'The Moon and Sixpence' has long been a suggestion, and I would like to discuss that one.
I also like the idea of doing Toni Morrison. Her stuff looks really interesting. What about 'The Colour Purple'? And I would also be in some American writers from earlier this century, as I haven't read much of them and would like to.
