Re: o.t. READING



"Great Expectations"....before that "Moby Dick" (again), and next month another classic. I won't even have time in my lifetime to finish all the great classics and great science fiction works, to I hardly ever read modern literature. The last thing I read was "Letter to a Christain Nation" by Sam Harris, and before that "The God Delusion" by Dawkens, and before that "House of Leaves" (freakin' bizarre), and before that "The Starry Wisdom: A Tribute to HP Lovecraft" a work that most people probably don't have the stomach to read because it is so utterly free thinking and provocative that they would deem the work repulstive and amoral after no more than a few pages... but the artwork and creative imagery is captivating.
