WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words.
WWW stands for three questions:
What are you currently reading?
by Arthur Miller
Synopsis:
The place is Salem,
Massachusetts, in 1692, an enclave of rigid piety huddled on the edge of
a wilderness. Its inhabitants believe unquestioningly in their own
sanctity. But in Arthur Miller's edgy masterpiece, that very belief will
have poisonous consequences when a vengeful teenager accuses a rival of
witchcraft—and then when those accusations multiply to consume the
entire village.
I'm reading The Crucible for the Timeless book club, The Lucy Preston Literary Society.
What did you recently finish reading?
by Mary Ann Shaffer & Annie Barrows
Synopsis:
January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine that she would find it in a letter from a man she’s never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb….
As Juliet and her new correspondent exchange letters, Juliet is drawn into the world of this man and his friends—and what a wonderfully eccentric world it is. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society—born as a spur-of-the-moment alibi when its members were discovered breaking curfew by the Germans occupying their island—boasts a charming, funny, deeply human cast of characters, from pig farmers to phrenologists, literature lovers all.
Juliet begins a remarkable correspondence with the society’s members, learning about their island, their taste in books, and the impact the recent German occupation has had on their lives. Captivated by their stories, she sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds will change her forever.
This was such a lovely book! I watched the movie as well, a review of both is on its way.
