What are your recommendations from recent fiction books?
Dear Ahimaaz,
I came across the translation of "Second Sex" by Constance Borde... (and the other). It's a hardback, relatively expensive.
It was in an English bookshop in Paris. Let me know whether you want me to get it for you and ship it to Hyderabad.
no, didn't find any from India. I bought a book once on Random House india that shipped to Europe.
I haven't forgotten your translation of "second sex". But hard to find.
Hello,
How is the writing coming along?
I remember you recommending a good site to buy books online. Can you tell me again what it is?
I'm wishing you a very happy Christmas and all the best for 2010 for you and all your love ones!
Greetings, Monique
yeah, of course. my email is rodolphocamargo@msn.com (it's my MSN passport as well).
Man, I've read a lot of books since the last time we spoke.. the ones I remember: The Boy in the Striped Pijama, The Exorcist, Gulliver's Travel, The Godfather, Bag of Bones (Stephen King's!) and now I'm reading Eyeless in Gaza..
My life is the same thing: fixing some computers, studying, doing vestibular.. what about you? :D
Thank you for friending me. We seem to read a lot of the same words.
ok! shuffling the two is quite something! what was that about goodreads by the way?
Writer's block?
What's Adam Eve and Serpent about? fiction?
Hi,I have been well .I think I wrote a short note to you .I am glad to hear from you .
Hello.
How is the writing coming along?
I read Siddhartha but did not like it very much. It's more fiction than historical. I picked up a lot of books on Buddhism, Ethics, etc recently.
ok, have found ur gtalk id. long live the net! u still have to answer the other questiosn though :)

the copter accident was nasty, pathetic way to die, no matter how pathetic a person you are...which books did you buy? and you work out of home?
Hello! I took the quiz, and it says I'm an all-rounder! lol
I see you're reading The Second Sex--how is it? I plan to get it from the library as soon as I can....
i took the quiz too and it says i'm an eclectic reader.
sale in crossword i'll miss since i have shifted base to bangalore. and having a library is great, having a place to house it is even better :) life's great with me too. tell me about the ups and downs in yours?
Thanks for your friendship request!
If you like Neil Gaiman's writingstyle, you might also like 'Un Lun Dun' by Chine Mieville. It's about a world under ours and specially London. Gaiman's 'Neverwhere' has a the same subject. Both books are really good.
Keep on reading!
Greetings, Monique
I don't know something definitive about the Batman casting, just heard a rumor that somebody Nolan cast for Inception could be the next Joker. I guess it's just a rumor. But i guess we'll know next year.
Haven't read Surrogates yet but i'm planning to. Heard that the movie won't be so good. But as long as people get introduced to comicbooks it's ok :-)
Blackest Night is good. The basic idea with the guys coming back from the dead is great. What i don't like about it is that they're just zombies. It's ok that somebody is pulling the strings that make the puppets move but there should be something of a "soul" still be in the bodys.
I know Bryan Talbot from a few conversations i had but if you recommend it i will check it out.
Using drugs is one of those hard nuts. It's the same with medicinal mariuhana. It takes a great deal of self control and knowledge of ones body chemistry to not get addicted when using a drug. I had a problem with medication a while ago. Thought i had it under control until i realised that i'm addicted.
18 Days looks very cartoonish indeed. I'm looking forward to it.
I'll send you some pics of the infamous store :-) I reduced my book count....i feel like i'm taking a vacation from comics in the coming months.
I'd like such plot :-) From what i heard the Miracleman books aren't even that good. Groundbreaking for it's time, but nothing new for "younger" readers. I want to read it tough,,,,
Some guys on ebay are crazy. Guess i'll join their ranks when i sell my He-Man figures one day :-)
That's wednesday comics, i have shot a few photos of me reading it on the crapper for a project :-)
