i want to read "love in the age of cholera and zombies". wow, i think literature has now been officially redefined. can you imagine? "fight club and zombies". "heart of darkness and zombies". "war and peace and zombies". "the 120 days of sodom... and zombies"


the possibilities are endless!

by the away, i recommend "world war Z". but its already about zombies.

Finished reading The Iliad a few days ago (I have so little time to read these days), just started reading Bob Dylan's autobiography, so far it's interesting and well written (ok, technically there are loads of "mistakes", but I guess that's just Bob's style).

Hm..

I just finished reading this: http://www.amazon.com/Alchemy-Mind-Marv ... 002&sr=8-1


And this: http://www.amazon.com/Frames-Mind-Theor ... 749&sr=1-1

Along with Aristotle's Selections, and Midnight In the Garden of Good and Evil (by John Berendt).

And I'm about to start reading Being and Nothingness, by Jean-Paul Sartre, along with: http://www.amazon.ca/QED-Strange-Theory ... 0691024170

Not quite overloaded yet.
I'm getting there.

How is it? I watched a movie adaptation and couldn't make sense of it (but from what I gathered on Wikipedia, the book isn't exactly clear-cut either).

Well, I've only just started reading it, but so far it's good and reasonably understandable. Sure, the situation itself is absurd, but it's written in a clear way, so that's not a problem at all. Maybe read Metamorphosis before the Trial, you'll notice a lot of parallels that way.

Okay, thanks.

Edit: Done, now onto the Trial!
