A fascinating, if grim, read. As Holocaust deniers/negationists seem to be gaining new momentum I felt it was important I finally tackled this book. Strongly recommended.
I read this years ago, but misplaced it along the way. TBH it’s a long, if interesting, haul, but watching the non-musical TV adaptation has rekindled my interest so this is on its way:

After discovering Marina Amaral’s photographic re-colouring work (see Old Pics thread) it piqued my interest to read her book with Dan Jones.

Refreshing my memory so I can do it full justice as next weeks class read.
Wonderful book, I re-read it every 2 or 3 years myself. Out of curiosity, what age group are you teaching? I would imagine most young folk are only familiar with the (silly) movie retelling.
9-10. It won’t form part of their literacy curriculum but I like to read them a good story during our occasional free periods. As a book to encourage a love of reading I can’t think of anything better , I’ve used it in previous years with 11 year olds and seen them go on to tackle The Lord of the Rings. Takes a bit of effort to do it well though, Gollum isn’t easy to read aloud and do his dual personalities convincingly

No chance. If I was good enough I’d be doing it for a living. I would happily pay to see a live reading from The Hobbit if it was done well.

Imagine a gormless Irish housekeeper holding up a series of cards (Subterranean Homesick Blues style) with ‘go on’ written on every one
Think red nosed comatose Irish Priest responding with FECK OFF
