I jumped to
attention when I received the
blog from Literary Review Newsletter because the headline grabbed my attention thus ...
Glued Together By Their Lies and the statement refers to
Jean Paul Sartre (one of my
favourite authors in French) and
Simone De Beauvoir (one of my favourite texts at University)
Nausea was a book I picked up at WH Smiths High Street Branch in Winchester sometime during the sizzling seventies when I lived there with family and it intrigued me so much so that I took up the study of
Literature including Literature in French leading to a successful conclusion of 3 degrees equivalent to a Ph.D ... but that was then and this is now.
VS Naipaul .. the great living writer in English is on my bookshelf and all I have to do is to teach it
world wide and then everyone will be happy ...
The clash between Christianity and Islam following on from Gibbons footsteps .. .. a dark patch in history I guess ... .. and the World War l
poets ... Isaac Rosenburg did not survive ... but I do like War l Poets about love of country/patriotism .....a major theme in world literature... thanks for blog .. keep on blogging.
