| Introduction | Join me on my journey to read 1001 works of literature (novels, plays, epic poems, short stories) over the course of my lifetime. I began this quest several years ago at the age of 49 as I realized that I had read few of the truly great literary books. I have established a target of one book per week, and will post my book summary at minimum once a month. Why I am doing this? I believe Great Books can teach us important life lessons. My personal goal is to learn, reflect and grow with these books. Please Encourage me on this fantastic ride and Enjoy my blog. |
