The Fish 9217 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I swear I'm so close to going postal... trouble is I'm home alone (not a shoddy early 90's slapstick comedy) so I'd just take myself out... I'm waiting for the window cleaners (yes... they're working today.... and I gotta pay em £6 despite the fact that thirty seconds after they clean my windows they'll be hacky again) when they knock on the door they're going to get pent up anger in the form of a surly thankyou and a forced smile... oh aye, they'll not soon forget this day!

Meenzer 14136 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I'm still trying to pluck up the nerve to finish Jonathan Safran Foer's "Everything Is Illuminated". It's a struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 9217 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I tried to make some joke about "turning the lights on" but it wasn't funny so instead I thought I'd dance for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 9217 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I'm afraid that in reading about all the myriad reasons we have to go insane that I'm finding it harder and harder to cease the inevitable slide into disfunctional existence, rocking back on forth muttering incoherently, repeating the same stock phrase " phpBB : Critical Error Could not connect to the database " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 (edited) Just finished '1933 Was A Bad Year' by John Fante which is about a poverty stricken High School kid who dreams of playing professional baseball. It's only a novella really but it's excellent. Just started reading 'Lullaby' by Chuck Palaniuk (the geezer who wrote 'Fight Club').

manc-mag 1 Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Last book was 'Bleak House' by Charles Dickens. Apparently the BBC are serialising it this Autumn. With Gillian 'Dana Scully' Anderson no less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 17034 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Im ganning on me hols soon and I like to take a couple of books. One a nice biography or a non fiction and then a fiction.

Guest alex Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being' by Milan Kundera. An excellent read, but melancholy. 6076[/snapback] Class book.

ChezGiven 0 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 We Are Now Beginning Our Descent - James Meek Also wrote The People's Act Of Love, which i'd recommend highly. His latest is about a journalist covering the war in Afghanistan. Great writer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 (edited) Bright Lights, Big City. You've probably read it Chez but, if not, I think you'd like it. Edited March 6, 2009 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Not read that, just checked it out on Amazon, looks good. Am also re-reading Popper's All Life Is Problem Solving, which i'd recommend to anyone looking for an interesting collection of philosophical essays.

Big Onion 0 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I finally got round to getting a copy of a book I've meant to read for ages, Wanderer, Sterling Hayden's autobiography. He's one of my favourite actors and had an incredible life so I was looking forward to it. But this book is absolute torture, like swimming in blancmange. He fancies himself as a Conrad I suspect, but the result is a mess - I managed about 20 pages. I'm now looking for a decent biography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
