No, we're not reading We. Maybe the Soviet Lit class does?
Wouldn't surprise me. It's definitely one of the more famous Russian works of the 20th century.
Cannabilism? I don't remember that one!!
Yeah! In TGCM, the original is translated. Apparently when Red Riding Hood gets to grandmother's house, the wolf has not only killed the grandmother, but cut her up into little pieces, which he offers to LRRH as "meat" and the blood as "wine." Then he says "undress adn get into bed with me," and the story goes on to say how she takes off each piece of clothing slowly, 'cause she's unsure about the whole thing. And then she gets into bed with the wolf and he eats her.
I've always always always wanted to read The Great Cat Massacre. Don't sell it back so I can read!!
Okey-dokey. It's quite good...a trifle long in places, but highly entertaining.
