Where have I been all this time?
After several weeks if not months of prevarication, I am, hopefully, getting it together.
Having attempted to struggle through a 6 week futurelearn course on ‘Reading Macondo’, which examines the work of Gabriel García Márquez’, I finally had to admit defeat this time round. Sadly, at least for those of us with only a smattering of any language other than English, the videos are all in Spanish. Even though the transcripts are bilingual it proved very hard work. Consequently I got too far behind.
I’m now in a more comfortable arena studying another furturelearn course ‘William Wordsworth: Poetry, People & Place’. This is proving no less fascinating than Macondo (which I will eventually return to). I heartily recommend anyone to look at the range of futurelearn courses – not restricted to literature by any means.
Now I’ve broken out of the mould I intend to continue this blog – at least weekly – without interruption!
Back on track again!
After far too long an absence, due to an extended period of illness and hospitalisation, I’m delighted to say that I’m now back to the blog. Sadly I’ve missed many things – not least of which was the annual London Book Fair – but I promise to catch up with the most recent items next.
