just 1 work of fiction

let say you were told to give up all of your book collection, and save 1 book of fiction. which book would you keep and why?

this is a question to which i personally do not have an answer yet. suffice to say - if this were to happen to me, i’d have a heart attack in the chair by my book shelf :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: just 1 work of fiction

I will keep 'Men are from Mars and women are from Venus by John Grey just because it would be helpful in dealing problems with my hubby :rolleyes:

War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy. . .

. . .for the grandeur and beauty of this work is beyond the borders of times. It creates a grand scheme of things and puts people, things and ideas in their right places, allows the reader to see from a distance or by becoming an integral part, that what the world in appearance is like and where do we stand in fact with all our slogans of humanity .

The lord of the rings....even though ive never read it!

:cb: lol!

that counts as a work of fiction. we’re talking non-fic..so what do you think you’ll be keeping?

aah. interesting choice. have you read the whole book by the way? i’ve yet to read it..

:cb: there’s an idea..pick a book you haven’t read yet and it’ll be full of surprises.
