Now, there's a new way for readers to discuss their passions, with the release of a new game,
The Art of Conversation: Literary Edition
.
Following the success of their original games, creators Louise Howland and Keith Lamb have adapted the concept to offer new angles and avenues to think, and talk, about books. This game comes with 300 starter questions plus a 32-page guidebook that includes informative and comprehensive endnotes. It has been carefully developed and researched by the creators, with the assistance of well-respected literature teacher Leila Bryant - and there's plenty of scope to come up with your own questions.
Like all TAOC editions, it's not a quiz - it's not about who knows the most.
It's a communication tool that draws on your own experiences, thoughts and reactions to facilitate fascinating discussions.

Packed with hundreds of entertaining and thought-provoking ideas to get discussions firing, these two sets of card games are just the thing to reinvigorate the dying art of conversation. Ideal for book clubs, writing groups and social gatherings, the aim is to help articulate opinions, exchange views and stimulate conversation rather than play a competitive quiz. The literary edition asks open-ended questions like �Is there a book that took you out of your comfort zone?� or �What book best describes your relationship?� to get readers thinking about the books that matter to them. Similarly, the travel edition promotes discussion about culture, language, travel experiences and tips, posing intriguing questions like �Where is your ideal pristine wilderness?� and �When have you felt yourself to be an innocent abroad?�.

This is the indispensable compendium of popular misconceptions, misunderstandings and common mistakes culled from the hit BBC show, "QI".

If, like Alan Davies, you still think the Henry VIII had six wives, the earth has only one moon, that George Washington was the first president of the USA, that Bangkok is the capital of Thailand, that the largest living thing is a blue whale, that Alexander Graeme Bell invented the telephone, that whisky and bagpipes come from Scotland or that Mount Everest is the world's tallest mountain, then there are at least 200 reasons why this is the book for you.
