I really must state the fact that I've been reading excessively this break. Nothing of literary merit, however, mostly a number of historical texts and class preparation books. Does anybody have any recommendations for me? I'm up for almost all genres of fiction, provided I know what the book may contain in a general sense before perusing it.

Wilde. I think you'd probably enjoy some of his essays and pontifications more than his plays, though. And his poetry simply wouldn't suit you at all.

But if not Wilde, some of the Shakespearean "tragedies" are rather amusing, as Miss Holloway has suggested.

Also, if you're comparing the quality of approach of the two essays...

...Oh, nevermind. I'm rusty on my debating skills, being so isolated.

Isolation can be a blessing.

Or it can be bloody lonely. Your pick.
