Unless I haven't been searching hard enough, there doesn't seem to be a thread in this community for bibliophiles (Sans Bond) and I thought it was time we had a thread where we can discuss what we're reading now, what we plan to read and what we have read in the past. Feel free to write reviews and anything else that you deem appropriate. I myself have just started reading Tony Benn's The Benn Diaries: 1940-1990 which is a definitive account of the Labour Party's time in and out of government in the postwar world as well as a general view on life, politics and culture by an articulate, wisened man who sadly passed this year. Although I am only 40 pages in (out of 641) I am starting to get a real grasp of British politics at the time, as well as Benn's struggles with his peerage, and his career as an RAF Pilot in Rhodesia during WWII.
