Out of 88 votes, 34% voted for Collins, 31% voted for Gaskell, and 17% each voted for Eliot and Trollope. Further, 67% of voters indicated that they’d participate in a tour for the author they’d voted for. Thanks so much for exceeding our expectations! This should be fun.The first author to tour The Classics Circuit will be Wilkie Collins. The tour will run from 2 November until approximately 4 December.
However, Elizabeth Gaskell was a very close second. Because of the overwhelming interest in both authors, we’ve decided to do a second (overlapping) tour of Elizabeth Gaskell from 16 November to the middle of December.
To Participate...
Head on over to The Classics Circuit website, read the informative post written by yours truly and Rebecca, and sign up to be a stop on the tour for Wilkie Collins. And get ready for the Elizabeth Gaskell tour too!
Thanks for posting this! I voted for Wilkie Collins but I've been wanting to read Elizabeth Gaskell too!
ReplyDeleteLola - Do both! I'm going to. Come on, we can do it. And we could do something fun together for the tour if you'd like.
