New #Blog Post: Grip #TheRaven, the most important bird in all of #literature.
On my recent trip to the @freelibrary, I met Grip, a raven who once belonged to #CharlesDickens, and who was the inspiration for #EdgarAllanPoe's greatest poem.

I devoured classic novels as a teenager. In a world of distractions, can I relearn how to read them? https://www.theguardian.com/books/2026/jun/02/classic-novels-relearn-how-to-read-distractions-screens #Books #Fiction #Classics #CharlesDickens #ThomasHardy #GeorgeEliot #BramStoker #LaurenceSterne #Culture

It’s Weekend, Let’s Read: Who is the author with more works in the Guardian’s list of 100 greatest novels of all time?
The Guardian made a list of the 100 greatest novels of all time. You can see the list here, with links to how Guardian’s made it. First place of the list is George Eliot with Middlemarch, but I thought to check which authors had more works in this list. And it’s Virginia Woolf with five books!
Second place in the number of the novels in the list are Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, both with four books.
Best part? There all in public domain, so you want to start with any of these four authors, right here, right now, head to Project Gutenberg and let’s read!
Books by George Eliot – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/90
Books by Virginia Woolf – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/89
Books by Jane Austen – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/68
Books by Charles Dickens – https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/37

There are five days left until Christmas.
I’ve started listening to an audiobook of “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens as I like to revisit this tale every December.

Listen to Linda Gould's wonderful reading of the Charles Dickens' Christmas story The Goblins who Stole a Sexton on her Kaidankai podcast. Published 7 years before A Christmas Carol, it has many similarities & can be seen as a prototype for the more famous story.
