    Hola K. Congrains.

    Un gran saludo desde Caracas. Soy un miembro reciente en Shelfari y lo encuentro muy interesante y enriquecedor tanto para los lectores como para los escritores. Estoy empezando a aprovechar el mundo por Internet donde ya mi esposa e hijas navegan desde hace mucho tiempo. Mi lengua materna es el castellano aún cuando también puedo comunicarme en inglés.

    Soy el autor de dos obras en castellano, un libro de autoayuda para despertar una inteligente selección de pareja (¿Cómo saber si es la pareja que quiero para mí?) y una novela de ficción que se desarrolla entre el misterio y la aventura (La búsqueda de los verdaderos tesoros: La guía, la llave y el salvoconducto), ambas disponibles por Amazon.

    Atentamente,
    Bernardo Lorenzo.

    Hi - Welcome to the History Non-Fiction Group. There are a few group rules posted at the top of the group page. Please take a moment to review and if you haven't already done so, introduce yourself in our "Welcome and Introduction" thread and tell us what your interests are. Our group reads are done on a quarterly basis and we are reading The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England by Ian Mortimer for the Jan - Mar Quarterly Group Read. Hope you'll join us and again, glad to have you with us.

    'History of Reading' is excellent! Happy reading. I was going through it again the other day after reading your post. I was struck (again) by some beautiful passages. That made me wonder who the translator was. The translator's name wasn't given. Maybe he translated it himself. If that is the case he has done more than an excellent job. What talent that man has if he can write so well in both English and Spanish!

    Yes, I've heard about it. It is mentioned in Alberto Manguel's 'History Of Reading' (which btw is an excellent book! Have you read it?). Yesterday after seeing the book in your shelf, I downloaded it. But sadly it does not have Italo Calvino's introduction. Does your version have Clavino's introduction? Yes, the illustrations are beautiful. I just 'flipped' through it yesterday. Looking forward to 'reading' it from cover to cover later. It is listed in amazon @ $550! Ha!

    Thank you for your friendship request. I took one look at your shelf and decided to accept your friendship request with alacrity! You have 'Codex Serafinianus' on your shelf! Wow! Have you read it? Looking forward to a fruitful friendship ....

    No, got Pygmy out of the library. To be honest, it's probably my least favorite Palahniuk novel.

    We have a lot of books in common. BTW, "Invisible Monsters" is my favorite Palahniuk novel!
