[close] Per uno scambio di opinioni - irrimediabilmente bête - sull'opera dello Scrittore più grande.

[close] Hello and welcome to The Count of Monte Cristo Read-a-Long Goodreads Group! Throughout November this year I'm going to be dragging unsuspecting victims into reading this beast of a classic with me, because frankly it's been sitting unread on my shelves for far too long. This group is here for us to discuss anything we might discover during our reading, whether it's the representation of early 19th century France or how good looking we imagine the Count to be. There's no judgment here. This is also the place where you can ask any questions about the read-a-long itself, but I assure you it's not designed to be difficult. All you have to do is find yourself a copy, in any format or any language, and start reading come November! My hope is that we'll all have a lot of fun reading a classic which, in my experience, looks pretty intimidating! Those of you on Twitter are also encouraged to update your weekly progress on the Twittosphere with #MonteCristoMonday There's also a Facebook group here!
