Currently reading: Coningsby; Or, the New Generation by Benjamin Disraeli.
#i know victorian authors can be very wordy#but book 2 of coningsby takes the absolute piss#never before have i been so relieved to hear about eton as book 2 chapter 7#john mulany voice: you know for YEARS scientists have wondered#can you make grown men and women weep tears of joy by talking about etonians?#and the answer is: Yes. you can. as long as it is preceded by six chapters of politics#coningsby#benjamin disraeli#books#reading#victorian literature#i'm sticking with the novel only because i've heard the two sequels are condition of england novels#and i love condition of england novels#misscottonsocksstuff
