Just finished Hollywood by Charles Bukowski. GREAT book, one of the best I've ever read. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good read.
ernest hemingway a moveable feast...read it a couple years ago just rereading it now, hemingway never gets old. i also just got done with a dean koontz book called the husband which was pretty good. in addition to that because sometimes ill read two storied at once i just got done with broken glass park a few days ago by alina bronsky, which i would recommend to anyone!
The Anne Rice Vampire Series...I know a lot of people think its smut, but her writing style is amazing. I'm basically reading it for the art of it.
I'm reading The Long Hard Road Out of Hell. It's a Marilyn Manson biography...pretty interesting. I love biographies.
martha nussbaum - the therapy of desire: theory and practice in hellenistic ethics good stuff, was thinking of posting some quotes re anger and violence in the activism sub-forum
Kurt Vonnegut's "Timequake." Read it before and have always loved it. Best line: when good things happen, we must be sure to notice them.
Just finished "Terms of Endearment" by Larry McMurtry. I can't believe I've never read it before; but it's been witty and really laugh out loud wonderful; and here at the end I've wept. I'll have to read some of his other books now.
Mcmurtry's Lonesome Dove is a wonderful read. (And surprisingly, the TV movie was excellent and worth hunting down as well.)
Autobiography of Upton Sinclair. A great leftist and rabblerouser. Next will be the autobiography of Mark Twain.
