"people forget that each writer writes for their audience,"
This is a very good point, Rachel. I find I read a few classic books a year,
not for enjoyment, but for discussion and to know that I have read that book.
An author of today that I really stuggle with is Louise Erdrich. I have read
her "Beet Queen" and just finished "The Master Butchers Singing Club." From
the start, both books were slow reading for me, but I can say I have read them.
And for Feb. 2006 Book Discussion Group here in Sheldon, Iowa I can add my
thoughts to the meeting because I have read the book. Most of my reading is
done for enjoyment, but there are times that we all need to put aside the
enjoyment, and read to learn something, or read to be well rounded people.
