Which books would you have used?

[elliemay1]

A Sight For Sore Eyes by Ruth Rendell

[jno]

you're sure you've got the right man for Worzel Gummidge, Ken? I mean, who's got the hair?

[CrapAtCryptics]

I have to laugh at the lack of doubt displayed that Labour would have dealt with all the recent events any better than the Tories did. They would probably have been given the same advice by all the experts and made the same mistakes as well. Its been a once in a lifetime event so there are no real experts.

I totally misunderstood the point of this thread so apologise for my naiveté very early on.

[gulliver1]

If this had have been about Trump. we could have "Beauty and the Beast".

[bednobs]

"The Subtle Knife, Fahrenheit 451, Betrayed, The Resistance, The Toll, Crisis Point, Glass Houses, and The Twits"
Does any one else think that apart from the twist all the others are pretty crap "insults"

[Tilly2]

No. I think they are an excellent choice for the present circumstances. They are not meant to be 'insults'. They are apt descriptions of the state we are in.

[roopower]

No choices. The librarian who arranged the books did it six mo ths ago when she left the job and the message was aimed at her bosses, who failed to notice it.

I thought your choices were quite appropriate!
The Plague - self-explanatory
Death in Venice - ...tho Italy has been just as badly affected as we all know
Far from the Madding Crowd - My Scottish holiday was less low-key than Dom's trip to the castle, sadly
Atonement - coming soon
Goodbye Mr Chips - Harry has given me this new diet (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-53930665)

[Tilly2]

Thank you, Ich. That's good of you to say. :-)

[tomus42]

I'm not convinced it's deliberate until some owns up to it. I reckon you could probably put a completely random bunch of book titles up there and read something into it if you tried.

Another bogus story that has everyone jumping in glee.
