I'm reading Ed Macy's Apache, it's fantastic, up there with Jarhead in terms of quality.

I'm thinking of buying Mr. Orwell's Down and out in Paris and London, is it any good??

I *loved* that! I don't want to influence you, but I really think it's worth a read.

Soul of the Age, by Jonathan Bate (a biography of The Bard)

What do you think of it?

I have gotten discouraged about bios of the Bard, ever since I found out that we actually know absolutely nothing about him/her/it/them.

The Age of the Warrior by Robert Fisk. Dry, but informative. I'm thinking of tackling Down and Out in Paris and London, and Brave new World next

Sorry, amnesia, I just repeated myself :oops:

In Search of Lost Time Volume 1 Swann's Way, Marcel Proust. I bought my copy used - Vintage Classics c1996, and am searching Amazon for the other five volumes. Has anyone else read all 6 volumes, and how long did it take? I mostly read on the bus to work, and late at night. Passages from this book replay in my head all day long.

I'm almost afraid to touch that one, seeing as I hate it when someone butchers a classic.

"Spin" by Robert Charles Wilson
