Ironweed- Wouldn't say the best novel, but was good. Worth the time.

We are what we quote.

& i guess we identify with the person we quote wouldn't be too far off?

God forbid someone should quote the Furher!

The Last Night of Summer by Erskine Caldwell.. Abrupt ending aside, that was actually fine. A bit painful in the middle with the rape/murder.

Uncle Tom's Cabin- Not the best one ever but was worth the read and a little depressing

Frankenstein- Seriously, I don't know how it is classified as a great novel.

Dear Gabriel - Halfdan Freihow

Brida - Paulo Coelho ....typical Coelho book, interesting as usual

The Clicking of Cuthbert and other stories - after repeated quotes from fellow hubber PR. Glad I did it. Am inclined to record a few thoughts for the Wodehouse thread.

Great ! Recordunga...

Compli, recordunga. Clicking of cuthbert is a ruthless satire by wodehouse I think of the english cognoscenti - their predilection to show off quoting russian authors etc.
I realise that to enjoy wodehouse you must buy into his conceits. I doubt for instance that he reveres golf as much as his writing shows - it is a line of humour established and he goes along with his own conceits.

Remember that this series has the father of a girl , impressed by the suitor, promises him that he will get his wife to agree by loudly opposing the match. Cliched humour perhaps but the reason I quote this now is that va moorthy does a similar thing in kdk. Another instance in that movie.of gopu channeling pgw.
