  1. I have read only the first two volumes. Story is interesting, but it is too long. There were moments when I dozed off.
  2. I just finished The Fall of Hyperion and I'm delighted - I have not read such a good story a long time.
  3. "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. One of my favorite books.
  4. I recently read "Last Night in Twisted River" - my first book written by Irving. I would definitely read other books of this author.
  5. Yes, it's a good story. I read it with pleasure.
  6. I like this one: "Earth" by William Roscoe SAD is my lot; among the shining spheres Wheeling, I weave incessant day and night, And ever, in my never-ending flight, Add woes to woes, and count up tears on tears. Young wives’ and new-born infants’ hapless biers Lie on my breast, a melancholy sight; Fresh griefs abhor my fresh returning light; Pain and remorse and want fill up my years. My happier children’s farther-piercing eyes Into the blessed solvent future climb, And knit the threads of joy and hope and warning; But I, the ancient mother, am not wise, And, shut within the blind obscure of time, Roll on from morn to night, and on from night to morning.
  7. There is interesting website about war poetry: http://www.warpoetry.co.uk/ I found there some good poems.
  8. I read some books of Tim Burton long time ago so I don't remember a lot, but I sure have a great fun
  9. Definitely Arthur Rimbaud and Charles Boudelaire
  10. I have some books to read: The Gin Closet by Leslie Jamison. LowBoy by John Wray. Chasing Windmills by Catherine Ryan Hyde. The Glimmer Palace by Beatrice Clin. America, America by Ethan Canin. The Size of the World by Joan Silber. I hope I will read them in the next month. Did you read some of those books? Any thoughts?
