Twenty Poems | Anna Andreevena Akhmatova
post image

#NationalPoetryMonth #April #day18 #water #AprilPoetryChallenge
These poems were translated by Jane Kenyon with Vera Sandomirsky Dunham in 1985. They are included in her book, Collected Poems, which is how I was introduced to this Russian poet.

BooksandCoffee4Me Ah, someone else who knows and appreciates Akhmatova‘s poetry! Last year when I was teaching adult Ed English language learners, one of my students from Russia read one of Akhmatova‘s poems with me for the class, I reading in English and he reading stanzas then in Russian. 5d

This was a cute romance that I read a couple of years ago.

Not quite a festive #wreath, but I‘ve loved Asterix since I was a child, so I‘m going with it!

#ScarathlonPhotoChallenge #Day18 #Zombie I‘m not a zombie fan at all, I think I‘ve read 2 zombie books in the past 15yrs? I‘ve never watched The Walking Dead either & while this was written well it still wasn‘t for me. #Scarathlon #SpookyGhostClub 6pts

Clwojick I really like zombie graphic novels, but not huge on the actual novels. 2y

#OminousOctober #Day18 #Enchanting Everything about this novel is enchanting. It‘s one of my favourite witchy books, though the Waverley sisters wouldn‘t say they were witches! A magical apple tree, one sister who can enchant the food she cooks, the other who can cut your hair & change your life. Add in a small town with a cast of characters & you have enchantment✨ #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter 6pts

MidnightBookGirl That's a gorgeous cover! I have a much different cover, still lovely though. :) 3y
Eggs Well done👏🏻👏🏻 Cover Love 💕 3y
