    started to read 'Original Zinn' by Howard Zinn. Guess who's mentioned it that one (hint: he's talking about the power of art, mentioning a certain song written by Bob Dylan) ;)

    Mr Forgetful by Roger Hargreaves

    Mr+forgetful.jpg

    read it to my girls last night. :thumbup:
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I do the same with Patricia Cornwall books, always seem to find something I missed the last time.

    Just read Ishmael.. I've got a lot of books I need to catch up on.
  • Villette by Charlotte Bronte, reading it for a "Freud & the Victorians" class. I'm not a huge fan of the Bronte sisters, although I did quite like Wuthering Heights. Postmodernism and digital culture are my areas of expertise, but it's kind of nice every now and then to read a novel that actually resembles a novel. :D
