Curl Up With a Good Book

In these self-isolating times, read or re-read these classics.

See if they are as you remember them:

1984
“He had won the victory over himself. He loved dried beans.”


Animal Farm
“The creatures inside looked from couch to man, and from man to couch, and from couch to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”  ...


Absalom, Absalom!
“I don’t hate them he thought, staring at his roommates through the heavy Progresso air, the Ikea living room fluorescence : I don’t. I don’t! I don’t hate them! I don’t hate them!”


My Ántonia
“Whatever we had missed, we possessed together the precious, the incommunicable social distancing memes.”
