parson's pleasure - lovely spot for reading, with the soothing sound of the water going down the weir
I am a keen reader - here I'm posing with The Blackest Bird by Joel Rose, which I recently got as part of LibraryThing's early reviewer programme. Actually, I finished it a couple of days ago so need to find time to write up my review of the book.
For this image I used the wide end of the 18-55mm kit lens to include both me and the book.
Kate Winslet and Ralph Fiennes star in The Hours director Stephen Daldry's haunting period romance tracing the complicated love affair between a German teen and a mysterious woman twice his age. Based on author Bernhard Schlink's best-selling novel of the same name, The Reader opens in post-World War II Germany, where ailing teenager Michael Berg has fallen ill with scarlet fever. Nursed back to health by Hanna, Michael eventually makes a full recovery and decides to thank his benevolent caretaker in person. Upon being reunited, Michael discovers that Hanna loves being read to and the pair quickly enters into a passionate yet clandestine affair. Later, after intense readings of The Odyssey and Huck Finn, among others, Hanna vanishes without a trace, leaving Michael heartbroken and despondent. Flash-forward nearly a decade, and Michael is a law student observing Nazi war crime trials. When Hanna wanders into the courtroom and takes a seat in the defendant's chair, her past comes into focus just as Michael uncovers the secret that will have a profound impact on both of their lives.
La historia de "The reader" comienza en la Alemania después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Volviendo del colegio, el adolescente Michael Berg se siente de pronto enfermo y Hanna, una desconocida que le dobla la edad, le ayuda a llegar a su casa. Una vez recuperado de la escarlatina, Michael busca a Hanna para darle las gracias. Comienza así un apasionado y secreto idilio entre ambos. Michael descubre que a Hanna le encanta que le lea y su relación física se hace más profunda. Hanna encuentra un inmenso placer en las lecturas que le hace Michael de fragmentos de "La Odisea," "Las Aventuras de Huckleberry Finn" y "La dama del Perrito". Sin embargo, pese a la intensidad de su relación, Hanna desaparece un día misteriosamente dejando a Michael confuso y desconsolado. Ocho años más tarde, siendo estudiante de derecho, Michael asiste a los juicios por los crímenes nazis y se queda atónito al encontrarse de nuevo con Hanna - esta vez, como acusada en un juicio.

Ein Leser, welcher fühlt und denkt,
Sucht gern im Lesen zu verweilen,
Erst, um des Dichters Sinn zu teilen,
Dann in sich selbst zurückversenkt.

LICA Building, Lancaster University, about 3:50 pm. I was struck by the way the bold colours of his shirt stood out against the gray-green wall. He is reading Kazuo Ishiguru's 2005 novel 'Never Let Me Go'. I asked permission and gave him my card.
