I have concluded that Army reservist training is the best time for one to engage in leisurely and brain-firing activities that cannot be tackled in usual times because of studies or the internet.
Anyway, I have borrowed a new book:
Βίος και Πολιτεία του Αλέξη Ζορμπά / Zorba the Greek, by Nikos KAZANTZAKIS (1952), translated from the Greek by Carl Wildman
The Latin course is also going well, although admittedly the book is targeted at kids taking an 'O' level course. Next week we'll be going to the jungle for reals, so maybe not so much reading and whatnot.
