| Introduction | On this blog you will find many biographical ramblings and writings that contain everything you can hope to find in a "mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam". Pique Books is also an education in the liberal arts in a blog. It includes an ambitious reading program: a review and critique of the Great Books of the Western World (1952) created by Enyclopedia Britannica and Chicago University which will take place over 10 years - to match the recommended reading program of the series. Your blogger is a school teacher and educationalist. A former English Literature Academic and Lecturer. And a voracious reader and collector of old books. Welcome to Pique Books. Please comment and engage and send feedback. Leave a piece of yourself on every post. Perlexed, overinformed, and overspent... the blog needs you! |
