Okay so you don't necessarily have to have read the whole thing yet but I want to open the thread now because I know some of you have started. How far have you gotten? Do you like it so far?
We should be done by the end of February so we can have a full discussion.
"How long have you gotten?" Well, that sounded sexual.
K, I'll leave now.
Where the Sidewalk EndsAnd before the street begins,
by Shel Silverstein
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.
Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.
Much better.

lol so on an oscar wilde note: Im on chapter III now wooo!
I read it for college last year. I guess it was good, but Wilde seems really confused in the point he's trying to get across. Finish the book and you'll see what I mean. I guess you could say I enjoyed it less because it's overall message wasn't clear. Interesting read though, if a little too old-fashioned for me. I don't really like reading books from the early 20th century or earlier...the books relate to a society which is long dead.
Tip: don't watch the movie before you read the book, it ruins it
Okay thanks BrianIll keep that in mind while reading.
So hows the discussion gonna work?
