Re: What are you reading?

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Repair, for my "Great Books" class. Just finished Fathers and Sons by Turgenev and Kafka's Metamorphosis. It's a rather strange class.

Well, let me know what you think of it. I know it in and out by now, so I am naturally curious. I am a bit surprised (in a good way) that it's in your "Great Books" class along with Turgenev and Kafka. What else is on the syllabus?</p>

Re: What are you reading?

In the evenings before I go to sleep I started readin A History of the Modern World. I just can't concentrate on my thesis all the time - need a break.

Re: What are you reading?



Went to the bookstore today and got some books for a philisophu/sociology/semiology refresh (Barthes, Bourdieu, Debord) + bought the two latest volumes (french translation, already read the whole series)of Hana Yori Dango : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boys_Over_Flowers</P>


In fact I don't really like any of the books I bought, I just want the person in charge of market analysis for the library chain to get a depression trying to explain my buying habits. [:P]</P>

LOL at Fuuma's comments. Sometimes I give up on all these guys - it's like watching the paint dry.
