I'll start reading Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco very soon. I can't remember the last non-academic book I read for enjoyment. A relative of mine reads those simplified novels for learners of English and I've read quite a few out of boredom. But they don't count. I think the last book I read was Bartleby & Co. by Enrique Vila-Matas. A very sophisticated book about the impossibility of writing, full of anecdotes of famous and other lesser known writers (the title comes from Herman Melville's [Moby Dick] short story Bartleby). I even managed to discover a few great writers because of that sleek book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The question isn't from marketing research either as no marketing value is in there, the question is how can a failed Pirate learn from his enlightned peers. @ Said the young chubby lady as she guiltily covered her erotic novel with a pizza box.... Chocalato and honey: the woman didnt find God but she found a brazilian lover, someone gave me the book and said it will be a major motion picture, I just read and saw a confused self-exiled middle class professional writer her life became empty cos of loveless marriage and outside-marriage-love-affairs, ended-up toiling indian temples and bumming Bali beaches, as she cashes her royalty monies of her books in New York, so much so as funny as she can get talking to God as a friend and a counsellor: Hi God how are am Liz, nice to meet you, then she heard God says - go back to bed Liz.... crazy woman. but you must like her style of writing, detailed and funny. nice read but am not her fan. 2+2=5 Share with us how it fairs that:Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco,before i spend my little dinar on it. Where is the Guru's let us hear from you! or no Guru - the dead of a Guru :cool: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chocolate and Honey Posted December 2, 2009 Chocalato and honey: the woman didnt find God but she found a brazilian lover, someone gave me the book and said it will be a major motion picture, I just read and saw a confused self-exiled middle class professional writer her life became empty cos of loveless marriage and outside-marriage-love-affairs, ended-up toiling indian temples and bumming Bali beaches, as she cashes her royalty monies of her books in New York, so much so as funny as she can get talking to God as a friend and a counsellor: Hi God how are am Liz, nice to meet you, then she heard God says - go back to bed Liz.... crazy woman. but you must like her style of writing, detailed and funny. nice read but am not her fan. I'm a sucker for quick-witted, good writing. Her marriage wasnt loveless; it was just one of those situations where she did what she "supposed" to, which is go to college, get married, rear children, yada yada. The beauty of the book is it's detailed depiction of the emptiness one feels and one is Godless. She could've spent her royalty money on anything but chose to search for God, inner peace and harmoney. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
