You've got a week to choose. The reading will commence at the end of september.

If there is another tie we can have another poll about whether I should pick the winner or not.

We'll begin Monday 26th September if that's ok...in the meantime someone do a breakdown - how many weeks are we going to need?

four weeks pass...

Hi all - can someone take over the thread posting for this w/ a breakdown.

Unfortunately stuff has happened which means I won't have much time.

Breakdown looks a bit awkward, actually.

My Penguin Modern Classics copy is 465 pages. The five parts are at pages 1, 255, 351, 419 and 445. Doing it over two weeks would be natural, except that it's pretty dense by the looks. Maybe over two fortnights, with the split at p255? Otoh that might be a bit long.

How about over 3 weeks, ie

wk 1: 1-254 (Pt 1)
wk 2: 255-350 (Pt 2)
wk 3: 351-465 (Pts 3-5) ?
