Books - What are you reading?

Agreed. Sometimes they can be too easy though. I read a translation of the Odyssey in which all the language had been translated to this academics idea of what working class language was. Back in the 1930s. Utterly horrible. You've not lived until you've read Ulysses saying the word 'lumme!'.

That sounds amazing. As an ex-classicist (ex-classicenger, in the forum argot?) I need to know which one this is.
