Plato The Republic translation F M Cornford

Jean Rhys The Early Novels

T E Lawrence 7 Pillars of Wisdom

Action This Day Michael Smith (1st editor)

2 are tomes I've wanted to read for years, and an unenforced absence from work has afforded me the opportunity to devote proper time to them, the third follows Wild Sargassa Sea, an illuminating "prequel" to Jane Eyre (I like to read an author's whole canon) and the fourth is more about spies/Bletchley Park Codebreakers - a favourite interest of mine (I hope to grow up one day.
