No, they're just the story of a man named Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom at 4
different points in his life, roughly 10 years apart each time....his
jobs, his marriage, his son, his parents, his beliefs, some unusual
people he meets....it's the quality of the writing that shines through
more brightly than any other author I've ever read.

i just finished Power of the Dog, by Don Winslow


was very good for a thriller ... semi fiction... and now i am in the
middle of THE GOD DELUSION by Richard Dawkins...it is very
interesting...but then again i am an athiest so it would be for me....


The Famished Road is my 3rd book i am busy with , by Ben Okri


i don't want to finish it it is so well written... prolly the most
beautifully written piece of literature i have ever read...


so there ya go! Kimi! summer reading! at least for a couple of weeks

Bl8ant --

I highly recommend Dawkins' "The Ancestors' Tale" which I have now read
twice. He is a brilliant man, he was a friend of Douglas Adams and he
is now married to one of the women who played Romana on "Dr. Who."
There could be no finer credentials to establish genius, in my book.

Of course, since I am also an atheist, I may be a bit biased.

the Stand stephen King
Anything by ****ens but Tale of 2 cities is my fav
The gulag Archepelego
the Conquerers
Tom Sawyer
Mein Kampf (read it many years ago,chilling)
Martian chronicles ray Bradbury

Many books I have read.

All have had an effect, the written word is quite powerfull.

The book that has had the most profound effect on me is the one written
upon the land.

It is not written in the words of man.

and changes each day so I will never finish reading it.

there is allways a new thing to learn and a new thing to see.

It helps me grow.

a long time favorite and and old one is "a heart is a lonely hunter"
forgot the author

All books have touched me in very different ways, and have shaped me to
be the person I am now.

The Alchemist - Paolo Coelho
The Jungle Book - Rudyard Kippling
Outlander - Diana Gabaldon
The Major Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, specially "The 8 Winds"

Many, many more...

thank you all for your food for thought
