Reading around the world

Hi. If you have followed me for some time (and if you have, thank you so much), you will remember I tried to read through Europe. In my old project I managed to read 33 out of 45 books. The reason I didn’t manage to finish was that I struggled to find European classics that were translated to english. I saw reading through Europe as a way of starting my project of reading one classical book/poem/story from each country in the world. So, to help me keep my motivation, I’ll now start from the begining, but open up to the whole world.
