Help us select what the MR Literary Club will read in May 2018!

This is a special Time Period month in that it is the final one in its cycle as we're down to the last remaining option. Thus, there is no need for a vote to determine a time period first.

The category for this month is:

Time Period Finale, 1501-1800

Nominations can be set in and published in any time period, but should be written during this time period.

Detailed nominating and voting guidelines can be found here. Simply put, nominations are open for four days and each person may nominate up to two literary selections which will go automatically to the vote. Voting then opens for four days and each person votes by post, receives a number of votes equal to the number of nominations minus one and may give each nomination up to two votes. Any questions, feel free to ask.

We hope that you will read the selection with the club and join in the discussion.

The floor is now open!
