OK folks.

Please post what it is you are reading for this month.

I am reading The Complete Plays, Lenz and other writings of George Buchner. Buchner is a reappraised German master who is widely acknowledged as being well ahead of his times who but for a life cut tragically short by illness, would almost certainly have been on a par with the giant Goethe.

EDIT: I've just noticed that someone else beat me to the punch and started a June thread..

Our policy is to try and keep the previous monthly reading thread open for at least 1 day into the new month and that it is best we keep these tasks to the moderators to perform...so as the other thread has only just kicked off as well and with an advanced apology to Grrimward for any inconvenience caused, I'm going to lock it, mainly to avoid the confusion of having now 2 June reading threads open.

I apologise for not having got to this earlier but I have had some unusual circumstances to deal with recently offline...
