I've just recently re-read Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest to teach, and have been reflecting on what a truly funny and marvelous play it is. I'm also slowly but surely closing in on the end of War and Peace, which I've been reading sporadically in spare moments since January and enjoying thoroughly. It ropes you in like a soap opera and then hits these really fantasically moving and thoughtful moments all the way through. Worth the read, and completely possible to read across a long extended period off and on like this. I must confess, I only got around to it at long last because I got a kindle for Christmas. No toting around an enormous volume, and the kindle lets me know what percentage I've read, so I know that I'm 81% of the way through right now.
