Modern Classics

[close] As suggested by Anna Bonet (iPaper January 2025). This list is suggested for readers with limited time and don’t wish to be bogged down with just a few classic books. In other words, if you’re struggling to show decent shelf numbers for the year, consider these. Animal Farm by George Orwell Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway The Stranger by Albert Camus Between the Acts by Virginia Woolf Passing by Nella Larsen We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson Giovanni’s Room by James Baldwin Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka The Awakening by Kate Chopin Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad

[close] A place to discuss all the unique aspects of Deaf culture as highlighted in the thriller Silent Fear (A novel inspired by true crimes) by Lance & James Morcan. This group can also be an intersection of sorts where Deaf and hearing people can engage and learn from each other.

[close] This is a space for slow readers that love to seasonally read classics. New classic chosen every two months. I decided to make a space to help keep me accountable and share my love for reading classics. As a slow reader, and someone easily distracted, I thought this could be a great space to share our love for reading at a slower pace, without the rush to read as many books as possible in a year. Currently reading The Secret Garden by Francis Hodgson Burnett from March 21 - May 21 • Future books to be chosen by poll.

[close] Ci sfidiamo a leggere 10 classici in 6 mesi. Si tratta di una selezione di 10 romanzi fondamentali della letteratura inglese, francese e russa.
