caddymanI never did manage to get a copy of Murders on the Rue Morgue that the Times was giving away last Monday, though I did manage to get the other four titles.
Murdoch’s boys are clearly on a roll. Today I went to get my sandwiches and paper to find that another five books are being given away this week:
The Diary of a Nobody by George and Weedon Grossmith;
The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde;
The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer;
Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K Jerome; and
Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift.
I’m not sure what the theme is this time, three are comedies, but despite some humour and much bawdiness, you couldn’t really say that about Geoff Chaucer’s stuff, could you, or could you? Gulliver’s Travels is more of a fantasy adventure as far as I can recall.
