The Dinner | Herman Koch

Fancy people at a fancy restaurant discussing a serious issue...what could go wrong?

Started this book the other day and then watched the movie. Good casting choices.

CrowCAH Yes, I‘ve heard starting and owning a restaurant requires a lot of money! Good choice for today! 7y

mydearwatson I don't know if they start it so much as attend, but this guy gets a seat at a restaurant the same day they want to go instead of getting a reservation three months in advance like everyone else...that definitely takes some money! (edited) 7y

Jess7 I will be cohosting Mindy‘s #booktoscreen discussion for this one in November. You should definitely join us. @MinDea

mydearwatson @Jess7, remind me then, and I'll try! I tend to read a lot at once, and I've also learn to let books go if I don't enjoy them, so we'll se if I've read it by then 😬. 7y

ReadingSusan Loved that book! 7y

rachelm I had no idea there was a movie! 7y

Rich: Solitaire | Graham Masterton

#MelodiousMusicals #IfIWereARichMan Not as creative as others but today's musical made me think of books where we have people going from rags to riches, e.g. Kane and Abel. I have chosen a historical Saga, Rich, written by Graham Masterton and which I read and really enjoyed over 30 years ago. Also loved some of his other historical sagas including Solitaire and Railroad, yet not read him since! Must address this. This musical was made for Topol.

CrowCAH Perfect pick for today‘s theme! “I wouldn‘t have to work hard...” Topal did a superb job singing this song! 7y

After Anatevka: A Novel Inspired by "Fiddler on the Roof" | Alexandra Silber

#MelodiousMusicals #IfIWereARichMan 🎵🎶OMG 😲How did I not know about this novel before today??? Fiddler On The Roof is one of my favorite musicals...I've always wondered what happened to Tevyah & his daughters!!! Coincidentally, I'm traveling to Odessa tomorrow on a charity mission which makes me believe I'm destined to read this book. Has any Litten read it? Please share your thoughts!

CrowCAH

Andrew65 I wasn't aware of this book either. Enjoy Odessa. (edited) 7y

Cinfhen It's a one day trip @Andrew65 which should make it both inspiring and exhausting....I'll let you know how it goes! 7y

Andrew65 @Cinfhen perhaps you should read

[DELETED] 3803335244 My son & I saw this play when he was younger together. It's one of our favorites, such wonderful memories! Adding this book to my stack 💜 7y

DebinHawaii I had no idea about this book--stacking it! Safe travels on your trip. 💜 7y

BookNAround Haven't read this but did read the original short story by Shalom Aleichem that was turned into Fiddler. It was part of the Russian Soviet Life class I took in high school a long time ago. 7y

readinginthedark Have you read the original stories? My brother said he thinks there's more about each of the characters after Fiddler in that, too.

Tevye the Dairyman and The Railroad Stories

Cinfhen I've never read the original collection @readinginthedark @BookNAround I really should! I'm gonna suggest it for my bookclub ☺️ 7y
