One down, sixty-three and a half million to go
Am hesitating between Eco's The Name of the Rose and Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter. So many books, so little time...
On my immediate reading list (apart from those two):
Don Quixotte (I keep threatening to read this and never get around to it, a lot like I did with Moby Dick —I wonder if there's a parallel?) -Miguel Cervantes
The God of Small Things -Arundhati Roy
Trionfo della Morte -Gabriele d'Annunzio (must rummage and find my Italian dictionary if I want to have a snowball's chance in Hell of getting through that)
The Cairo Trilogy -Naguib Mahfouz (I hope I spelled that right)
À la recherche du temps perdu -Marcel Proust
The Pastures of Heaven -John Steinbeck
Hoping that reading will keep me this side of sane for a while. Off to bed now.

Re: What?
Sure. Why not? I'm trying to catch up on classics and contemporary stuff. :)
