The second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant having recently finished the first, can't believe it's taken me this long to get round to reading them, they're magnificent pieces of writing.

Read a few of those years ago,very good as you say.

Reading "God is not Great" by Christopher Hitchens,at the moment.
 
Just finished[for the first time]Of Mice and Men,Steinbeck's novella on displacement and the need to belong.The man's humanity leaps from every page and he packs so much strong characterisation and storyline into so small a literary space.Found myself rationing the pages as I approached the finish,just to make it last.Read it before you die!
Just started The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain both of which I haven't read since I was a lad.From memory I much preferred the latter.The dialogue between Huck and the runaway slave,Jim,is priceless and Twain captures a magnificent sense of freedom of their life together rafting on the Mississippi river,the "Father of All Waters".The book is an American national treasure.

I done that book as part of my English exams for my Leaving Cert your A Levels it was a decent read from what I can remember of it it was nearly 10 years ago jesus I am getting old.

I finished the Bernard Dunne book not a bad read but you have to be into boxing to buy the book to be fair.
