#2026GreatCanadianReadingChallenge – Goal 12 books

Good News: I finished it.

Bad News: Do you know how bad a book has to be to feel more entertainment reading my weekly grocery shopping list?

Personal: Oceanic (and sometimes tedious) self-contemplation (examining or reflecting on one’s own thoughts, feelings, desires, behaviors, and values) of 4 university academics and 1 brilliant female student. They all are in love with her in their own special way.
I cannot tell you how many times I fell asleep reading this book. If If you want to read good literature which fuses Medieval mysticism and the intelligentsia, read Umberto Eco…not this sh*t.

Conclusion: NOT going to read any more books of The Cornish Trilogy.
My opinion of Robertson Davies? Well, I’ll have quote Hamlet:
“He was a man, take him for all in all. I shall not look upon his like again.”
