Television Watcher, Sidewalk Philospher, Musician, and Working Stiff . I don't read so much anymore, except for news and world events via the Internet. I am actually in the on and off again process of writing a novel. This site is great. I look forward to start reading again. I look forward to reading your recommendations.

  • The Great Gatsby
    • Rated 5 stars

    “This book is the Jazz Age written on the page. Jay Gatsby is the personification of America at that time. The self made man, who is not accepted by the aristocracy. The dreamer who could not accept the reality that it could all end someday. The text is loaded with symbolism and the way it reads is close to perfect. This is a "Great American Novel." ”

    • Rated 5 stars

    “This is the book that started it all. Before this there were only children and adults. Salinger gave young people a voice, face, and a name "Holden Caulfield!"”
