We’ve got an endearingly weird pick ‘n’ mix selection coming up this week, with a nice bit of culture clash, a double dose of Castro, a dash of P G Wodehouse followed by some World War II partisans and all rounded off with a sex manual.
Honestly.
Who says we don’t plan this stuff?
Monday sees Jackie finding out what Christina Thompson’s title means: Come on Shore and We Will Kill and Eat You All.
On Tuesday, Kirsty begins a two-part article on the Language of Fidel , studying Castro’s account of the Sierra Maestra campaign in Fidel Castro: Biografía a dos voces.
Another new guest reviewer joins us on Wednesday, when Sharon Robinson encounters P G Wodehouse for the very first time.
On Thursday, Kirsty concludes her two-part study with a look at Castro’s childhood story.
Friday finds Moira in the depths of Belorussia with the Bielski Partisans, reviewing Nechama Tec’s Defiance.
On Saturday Rosy gets it on with The Guide to Getting it On and explains why this is the book about getting it on she most gets on with.
