[Emel]

Power of the dog.

[graydot]

really enjoyed the satirical commentary about human nature and human relationships. although some may disagree, rushdie is a fantastic storyteller.

[Fade to Black]

Philip Roth - The Dying Animal

haven't read any Roth since Sabbath's Theater but was at the library yesterday and needed something to tide me over, really couldn't find anything and this seemed short and sweet. I kinda like the non-writing style of prose he employs here.

[Teazer]

Albert Camus - Le premier homme

[Faust]

Is it good? I never got around to reading that one.

Reading Lush Life by Richard Price. Very good so far. Not as good as The Bonfire of the Vanities, but very NYC.

[Philipppp]

Lo-Lo-Lolita.

I recommend it, to all. Nabokovs writing is strangling.

[Fade to Black]

[gaborb]

L'Écume des Jours by Boris Vian and I really like it.

[galia]

^ such a pretty book. I should re-read it, I think I was way too young when I read it
