    A wonderful idea!!! I have been prodding myself — to no avail — to start to read the classics again but have been either too lazy or too involved reading current novels and haven’t been successful!! This would be just what I need! Please keep me advised. Thanks, Anne

    I’m curious as to what you mean by “classic”? Could be one the old Roman or Latin classics (e.g., Thucydides on the Peloponnesian War). Could be an older book of the last 150 years (e.g., Dostoyevsky’s “Brothers Karamazov”). Could be even more focused, e.g., to an American Pulitizer-prize winning book of non-fiction such as Greenblatt’s “Swerve”.
