I've been reading through the last posts in this thread, and the discussion does sound as if we have officially chosen, "The Tin Drum" as the next selection. I don't want anyone to believe that this is true, "The Tin Drum" will only be one of several sugessions. And yes, Grim, I do believe it is worthy as a book sugession, but the comments of members will determine whether or not it goes into the offical poll.

If "The Tin Drum" is not selected as the next fiction pick, it can always be added as an additional fiction selection, if there is enough interested members.

Ah, don't sell yourself short Grim. You can overcome "thickness"! :P

Hi Suzanne,

Empire Falls from Richard Russo is great.
