I'm curious to see how you find both Malady of Death and Empire. Whenever I try to read anything else by Duras, I always inevitably find my way back to that book (that's actually from my grad school days). Empire is interesting because it has a fascinating blend of Foucault, Agamben, Heidegger, Marx, etc. all put into the globalization discussion (the third of their trilogy, Commonwealth, just came out).Why do I have the feeling that it will take years just to type in my 'completed' shelf?
I definitely like it so far. So are you supposed to recommend a book for me? How is the brain scans book? And why don't I see 'Bite Me!' among your Kierkegaard books? ;-)
Absolutely--wasting time online is becoming a hobby! :-) This is fun. Thanks for the invite.
So is this what all you hot-shot Anthro Profs do all day? Wish I could get that kind of work! Am finally reading the Bros. K.
"Anna Karenina" is excellent. I read it and then watched 3 different movie versions of it. But, as usual, the book was by far a better choice.
Hi, Deborah. I noticed that we have a few russian literature books in common. Which was your favorite? Other than "War and Peace," Anna Karenina" was my favorite. But I also really liked "The Brothers Karamazov."
