Yes, The Red and the Black...I, myself, was surprised to find that this book is not actually about fashion trends,nor is Colors for that matter, another disappointment. Little Women wasn't about dwarfs either. Of Mice and Men was an interesting tale, again, not as you would expect about animals, but instead the problems of integrating reality with fantasy, something that we all can relate to. My favorit has to be Tortilla Flat...the carefree life of the happy Latino worker in California...always a feel-good read.

It's wonderful to be among the literati!!!
