Song Yet Sung--James McBride0

Just started a collection of short stories called "Darwin's Bastards".
It's a Canadian project with entries from some of my favourite authors, including Douglas Coupland (the main draw for me), Yann Martell and William Gibson. The stories share each writer's vision of a dystopian future for our species. Most of them are quite entertaining so far, although kind of disturbing as well.

Gao Xingjian - Soul Mountain
'Gao Xingjian was the winner of the 2000 Nobel Prize for Literature, the first Chinese author ever to be so honoured. In 1983 Chinese playwright, critic, fiction writer, and painter Gao Xingjian (pronounced gow shing-jen) was diagnosed with lung cancer and faced imminent death. But six weeks later, a second examination revealed there was no cancer, he had won a reprieve from death and was back in the world of the living. Faced with a repressive cultural environment and the threat of a spell in a prison farm, Gao fled Beijing. He travelled to the remote mountains and ancient forests of Sichuan in Southwest China and from there back to the East Coast, a journey of fifteen thousand kilometres over a period of five months. The result of this epic voyage of discovery is his novel "Soul Mountain."'0 -

Currently I'm reading the Collected Works of Rudyard Kipling, and although I enjoy some of the themes present, it's not really holding my interest. There seems to be a disconnect between myself and the stories, and I just cannot seem to relate to any characters.
My last book, Tadeusz Borowski's 'This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen...', was an astounding and educational collection of short stories. I highly recommed it.
I think that if I give up on Kipling, I'll move onto 'Eating the Dinosaur'. Any opinions on that one?0 -
