People with bookshelves.

We have at least one bookcase in every room, except the toilet I may add! This is my wife's doing as I'm not a great reader myself. I do possess some books, mainly on the Albion and cricket plus a few other odd subjects. We also have loft full, again mostly my wife's.

At the moment i am reading the Century Trilogy by Ken Follett. Fall of Giant's, Winter of the World, Edge of Eternity. I read them last year but are so good i am reading them again. I also have his Kingsbridge Trilogy which are equally as good.

I have read The Pillars of the Earth and World Without End. I have A Column of Fire here. Two fictions I would recommend are The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists by Robert Tressell. A totally brilliant book about the class struggle. It was written pre First World War and the Russian Revolution and is interesting in that context. Another outstanding book is the short The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It is about a father and son wandering through a ravaged post nuclear war landscape. Harrowing.

I will certainly read both books again.

Lots of book shelves in our house, filled with books (I don’t understand people who fill them with other stuff, vases, photos etc &#129320. We (esp the mrs) read a lot, and both me and the mrs (yet again esp the mrs) probably studied too much and too long at university, so quite a few books from back then too. Imo, I think book shelves filled with books look nice too.

In 2005 Peter May (read a few) wrote a book entitled Lockdown about a global pandemic. It was rejected by the publishers as being too unrealistic.

It's available now on Amazon. Just bought it.
