“Dr. Zhivago”
I loved that book. I really felt I understood the Russians a little better after reading it too. They went through 3 huge wars right in a row. love the movie too, so romantic!
When I was in the 6th Grade, The Movie “Dr. Zhivago” came out. I wanted SO MUCH to see it, but Mom said NO because the K of C Magazine said it portrayed extra-marital sex. I sneaked into the theater an sat through TWO showings, and then crept home and confessed to my Mom.
Mom said, “That Movie was too adult for you! It showed two people in bed together who weren’t MARRIED!”
“They were too married,” was my cheeky reply, “Just not to EACH OTHER!”
Oh Wow...I forgot to add “The Gulag Archipeligo” to my list of Big FAT Books that I have read. I could I have forgotten that one? LOL.
