Hurricane Sandy has thrown my community for quite a loop in the last week. We are among the lucky to have not sustained any power outages or major loss of property. Yet so many in my community are still without power almost a week later. The kids haven't been in school ALL WEEK and THREE schools in town are STILL without power! Yikes! We have opened our home all week to friends without power who need a warm place to stay, charge their devices, check email, do laundry, take showers, coffee, meals, and even two of my friends have food in my freezer! (We have an extra freezer in the basement.) <br /><br />Anyway, I am a little behind in posting the read-along discussion. I did finish reading Part One last night and wanted to post something today, but I may not get to it until the morning. I hope you have been reading--it's really good so far!!! yay! <br /><br />How are you all doing?

LOL! What? At least it was all original text. ;)<br /><br /><b>Alex</b> At least you read it! When you were 13, no less! Impressive. Anna Karenina is very long but at least it's broken up into sections. Hopefully it'll be captivating enough, but if not, I'll take it section by section. <br /><br /><b>Hils</b> A dramatized radio program of Anna Karenina... sounds wonderful. Even better than tody's audio books. I hope I like it. I am pretty nervous to read it!

My first encounter with ...Christine, how wonderful! My first encounter with Anna Karenina was as a child. Back in the old country (lol) I heard the whole story as a dramatized radio program. Then later, I read it during my Tolstoy, Pasternak (Dr. Zhivago) Kafka etc... reading years, but it has been a long time! I hope you enjoy it. :D I still have War and Peace by Tolstoy in my book shelves, but have NOT read it... LOL! <br /><br />Hilciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765831808358693421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-42381538322950917992012-10-24T03:06:01.781-04:002012-10-24T03:06:01.781-04:00:P I haven't read Anna Karenina since I was 13...:P I haven't read Anna Karenina since I was 13 - I went through a Russian phase when I was in the eight grade and I read some Tolstoi and Dostoyevsky - and I mostly remember it was long. LOL And very vague stuff from the movie from the mid-nineties. <br /><br />:D good luck with the read- along, it does seem like it'll be more fun that way.
