    Hi there! I'm just dropping by to welcome you to The 100+ Book Challenge. The idea of the group is pretty much self explanatory - try to read 100 or more books in a one year period. If you do have any questions, please feel free to send a message to me or Tenia. In the meantime, good luck reaching your goal!

    No offence taken -- books were, indeed, my own pass to personal freedom -- hence the Oprah quote. But for books, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I will need more than nine lives to read all the books I have and want and more! Quite an interesting collection you have there. Tintin, Wodehouse, Proust and Sophocles. Hmm… Not to mention Wilfred Owen. His poem “Futility” is so depressing, and oh so depressingly current.

    Thanks for the FYI on Littell. I haven't read The Company yet but I have something of a CIA fixation (long story) and I read somewhere that The Company is the definitive novel of the CIA.
    Thanks for joining the India group.

    Hi,
    I just found your shelf via a post on the India group. Very eclectic titles which I shall probably plunder in the future. I also list photography as an interest, but if your pic is anything to go by - I should try harder!
