I plan to read "Great Gatsby" soon although the only other one I have read is the "Scarlet Letter". Right now I'm actually reading "Bless me, Ultima".

I re-read Great Gatsby some years ago after reading it in college. It still didn't "do anything" for me, alas! But, that's not to discourage you from giving it a try! :)

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
