Chick Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 We had a temp change of venue. I had checked it out and was told it would be quiet but when I got there it was mobed, no where to sit and very loud. Then it started to rain very heavily so we had to get a taxi to the Clock.katie1997 Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> What was the disaster the other night?

Michael Palaeologus Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 How are people doing with Anna K? I am on page 128 and am enjoying it. To start with, there were just too many words and no sign of Anna. Now that she and Vronsky have met and a few sparks are flying, I have found some traction with the plot and characters.Levin needs a slap and needs to man-up. It is one hell of a brick though. Only another 680 pages to go ...
