GOOD IN PARTS    

The Text, The Whole Text, and Nothing But The Text

Saturday 28 December 2019             No. 165                         Free

Most of the Classic Novels were first presented to the reader either in three volumes or in weekly instalments, so the reader was used to the idea of reading the book in parts.  We have borrowed this presentation so that you, dear reader, can try the experience.  It may be particularly salutary for those who are a little awestruck by some of the longer novels...

CONTENTS

Leo Tolstoy: Anna Karenina Part 52

Wilkie Collins: The Woman in White Part 22

Jonathan Swift: Gulliver's Travels Part 18

Charles Dickens: David Copperfield Part 7

H.G. Wells: The War Of The Worlds Part 1

SEE THE FILM AND READ THE BOOK
Louisa May Walcott: Little Women Part1
