Excellent literature.

I suggest Anthem, by Ayn Rand. It's very short...around 100 pages or so...easy reading but very thought-provoking.

http://www.amazon.com/exe...s&n=507846

Of course I've already read it...I just thought I'd toss it out there in case people wanted something uplifting, as opposed to Nabakov...

(don't let Amazon fool you with the anniversary edition, 250 pages--the extra pages are mostly a giant preface)

CAN 2THE9S HURRY THE FUCK UP..!!

I'll take that as a "yes"!

I'm up for it! What's the deal 2the9s, I think it'd would be best if one person each month or whatever suggests a book for everyone to read, and we then discuss it. And then someone else suggests one, etc.

I think Ben is going to try and create a special subscribers-only forum for it... watch this space.

I'm reading "Green Eggs And Ham" for my daughter. Can this count towards the book club?

It does sound like fun, as long as you intellectuals dont get all haughty over my dumbass views.

Oh, and another thing, as long as I'm allowed to slag off on 2the9s views.

I can't promise that.

That I can promise

I am very much a fan of your American Charlie Brown books, a fine series indeed my friends!

But Mister Brown's older sister was most rude. May Allah guide her from her insolence!

By the way, at the end, he eats the Green Eggs and Ham and likes it!!

I MUST add Observatory Mansions by Edward Carey, Red Sorghum by Mo Yan, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.

Of course, I think everyone should read Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged...but that's just me. (That book saved my life!)

I do not want to belong to any club that will accept me as a member.
Groucho Marx (1890 - 1977)

And with that, I'll decline. My reading extends to the back of sauce bottles when I'm eating my tea. I'll only slow you down. Good luck.

Observatory Mansions looks interesting Sausage Man! I added it above.

But damn it's long!

Lleena, I have offended you. I must apologise for my poor English. I would have you dine with me at my palace.
