Ordered these books yesterday:
I'm still reading Turgenev and very much enjoying it. I really like the characters. Bazarov really is showing tthe faults of nihilism. It even seems like he doesn't believe in it himself anymore. Arkady seems to not believe in Barazovs ways either. He seems to call him his mentor just because nihilism was so interesting. Anyway, I'll probably finish it today. |

Sheakespeare's Bawdy by Eric Partridge, 1956. It claims to be an exploration of the 'the non-sexual, sexual, homosexual, general and valedictory' aspects of the bawdy in Sheakespeare. It further claims to be a 'literary and psychological essay and a comprehensive glossary' that is 'an invaluable work'. We'll see.

"Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea," by Charles Seife, and it is very good. It's all about the number zero - it's history, it's signifigance - and while that may not sound too interesting, it really is.

You absolutely have to read the manga 20th Century boys or Monster by Urasawa. Absolutely.
