ten seconds to state the obvious
truth that no one wants to hear but
no professor will object to brevity
if not to allow time for the more
important matters requiring far more
than ten seconds for an essay
ten seconds.
Never Let Me Go: One of the strangest page turners I have ever read. Not sure if I could recommend it, though.
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: On eating locally, and from your own garden. Food for thought!
Slouching Towards Bethlehem: Appropriate reading while listening to audio clips from Mayor Richard Daley on how he's going to keep the peace during the 1968 Democratic National Convention.
The Razor's Edge: A character for everyone to relate to. A must read.
Snow: Only finished half of this story of a somewhat nutty Turkish poet in a land torn apart between secularism and Islam.
The Things They Carried: A 43 year old journalist reflects on his experiences in war. A good book worth reading.
Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress: A delightful, quick read. HIghly recommend it.
Le Cle dans La Porte: The French got quite a bit harder and I'm still working on this one! Zut, alors!
The Audacity of Hope: After reading this, I am even more impressed with Barack.
