I never said I was a role model

elentar posted:

My favorite novel of the century. Whenever I teach it, I have students keep a diary of random impressions as they go through, both because it's interesting to see what they pick up on, and because it helps them track their paths through the book. If I can ever get the people now in charge of the estate to cooperate, I'll do a proper digital edition of it at some point.

Also at the end of most semesters that I've taught this class, I assign everyone to reread one book from the semester and write an account of their rereading. A lot of them opt for Pale Fire.

I love this idea of keeping a diary along with it. Even though I've read Pale Fire before, I'm sort of delighted that this book is the BotM here for August. That along with the diary idea is a good enough reason to finally reread it.

Thanks for posting this idea!
