Re: English books miniclubs 2016
At the moment, I'm reading Lord Jim by Joseph Conrad.
This novel tells this story:
A hundred years ago a seaman's life was full of danger, but Jim, the first mate on board the Patna, is not afraid of danger. He is Young, strong, confident of his bravery. He dreams of great adventures -and the chance to show the world what a hero he is.
But the sea is no place for dreamers. When the chance comes, on a calm moonlit night in the Indian Ocean, Jim fails the rest, and his world falls to pieces around him. He disappears into the jungles of south-east Asia, searching for a way to prove himself, once and for all.
If someone want to read this novel with me...

Re: English books miniclubs 2016
I have just finished this novel, so I think there is a typical novel of Joseph Conrad. Besides this novel has some characteristic of the work written by this author. For example, a mysterious past and an task very complicated to do.
In my opinion, Joseph Conrad is good at to construct differents profiles of torment characters. In this case, there is Lord Jim,
As you can imagine, you recommend this novel, of course!,

This morning, I have just borrowed Animal Farm by George Orwell. I feel like to read this novel, although I know that there is very sad and distressing, too!
Here, I will write my opinions and feelings about this book!,

Re: English books miniclubs 2017
Another one for The big sleep if I find it in English. It won't be difficult, I guess.
