Can all Beaker Folk please note that tonight is "Return of the Native" Night. Time to start reading the great novel, on the day the novel starts.
Possibly the best written work in the English language. Featuring love, betrayal, death, loss and gawping rustics. A world of community. A world of danger. A world where oosers run amok while demented housewives say the Lord's Prayer backwards. A world where yokels jump around in dying bonfires because they can. A world we'll never understand.
You've six weeks to read it. And then it's time for "Under the Greenwood Tree".
Alternatively, the Bible, particularly the Old Testament, might fulfill of those criteria.
