If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

Robert Rees It would have to be Narnia I think. Talking animals, mythical creatures, and beauty. What's not to like!

A couple of science based books - I am currently reading "The Invention of Science", a history of the Scientific Revolution by David Wootton (excellent). Some science fiction - I particularly the classic SF series. Usually something on music. At the moment I am wading through a heavy but enjoyable study of Mozart, Haydn and Early Beethoven by Daniel Heartz. And then a few current novels. I also always try to take one classic book - this year it will be either Bleak House or Proust. Last year it was the Illiad - brilliant. Sometimes I get through it, sometimes I don't. Like my character, Henry Fanshawe, I have bookshelves of books that I have read, and bookshelves of books that I have not read, but feel I ought to.(less)
