Book Soundtrack

If you were hosting a Book Club meeting in your home and you wanted to play some background music, what would you choose?

I'd play The Books. Or Wrapped Up In Books on repeat.

Never heard of them! Will Spotify.

The Books are a very strange spoken word/ambient band. I remember liking their album Lost and Safe but not sure what they've been doing lately.

That's not sounding very appealing to me right now. :-)

Fair enough, I was just going by the band name really! Here's one track by them though in case you're curious:

How was The Master and Margarita? It's on my to-read pile.

We unanimously loved it, though there was some agreement that the original allegory has been lost to time and cultural differences (it's apparently about Stalin). I thought it was a treat - really surreal and magical like the best of Gabriel Garcia Marquez!

good choice too!
