nice! that's a decent book...unlike the nyt reviewer however, i wouldn't re-read it-- it's kind of a dated book, very 60's. but still. cortazar blew my mind when i read him, and the damage is done. he's got awesome short stories too, if you like him. i'd start with bestiario.

Lateral Thinking - Edward de Bono

I have a class in an hour to discuss Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed.

I didn't read. Was to drunk/hungover all last week.

I need to get my informed-but-opinionless poker face on.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf
......................Virginia Woolf
.......................Virginia Woolf
........................Early in the morning...

By Edward Albee

I'm making my way through the Sherlock Holmes collection. I have two more stories and then I'll be done with the Memoirs.

Apparently most productions of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf the song is sung to the tune of "Here We Go 'Round the Mulberry Bush" because the rights to Disney's "Who's Afraid Of The Big Bad Wolf" would require a huge sum of money. That makes me kind of angry.

Currently reading a collection of short stories by Ray Bradbury called The Golden Apples of the Sun.

Also I'm studying Composing Digital Music for Dummies.

what the hell is a book

this:



and kenji siratori's (debug)

and plato's dialogues.

Done with the Memoirs, Sherlock Holmes is dead for now. I've already read The Hound of Baskervilles, which was written after Doyle had killed off Holmes but takes place before his "death", but no fears, Holmes will be resurrected as soon as I start the next volume.

Great picture of that edition of crime and punishment. my favorite Dostoevsky's work is "the idiot". although i havent seen any interesting covers of it. very plain.

The Great Shark Hunt.

Last week, Cosmopolis.

This week, Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro.

finally finished the master ad margerita. one of the best and most enjoyable books that i have read.
im going to start reading some propp and breton

i was neutral on master and margerita. it wasn't bad and kind of fun but someone had really hyped it up to me.

anyway i only read my own papers and the inside of my eyelids at the moment.

Museums and Women by John Updike

The Looking Glass War by John LeCarre

Alice in Wonderland/Through the looking glass. Lewis Carrol.

I'm reading Swann's Way (Proust), Crime and Punishment (still), and A Doll's House (Ibsen).

Isn't it weird how A La Recherch Du Temps Perdu can be translated into "Remembrance of Things Past" and "In Search of Lost Time?"

His Last Bow - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes short stories
just finished The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans
4 more stories in this collection, 12 more in The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes and I'll be done with Holmes for good. I thoroughly enjoy them and am anxious to read them all. I do see myself revisiting the first 3 novels and some of the short stories in the future.

Going to tackle this over Christmas break:

the second one is closer-- the first one was montcrieff's invention
