    Kia ora,

    Yes, it is for you.
    However, it's one of those silly generic messages.
    Welcome to the group!
    Please post something if you feel compelled to.

    Take care

    Hi Sarah. I hope to read Beijing Coma as well, although I have at least 2 books before I get to it. Why I liked Disgrace so much ? I think one of the reasons is that it was uncomforting and bothering. It posed a lot of very interesting questions, and managed to describe the situation in South Africa without using clichees or being politically correct. I think you can see the main persons situation a bit like the whole wests relation to terrorism. On one plane, the west is horribly guilty, on another, the persons who are afflicted are innocent victims.

    Thanks Sarah very very positive! They have Man Interrupted for about 11 dollars at www.amazon.com and check out the cool reviews there too. If you don't get stuff on line pop into a Barnes and Noble or any book store and ask for Man Interrupted and if they don't have they will order for you. I tried to make it funny yet profound. Looking forward to your feedback too. Let me know? best James.

    Hi Sarah where are you? Very cool picture! you llok like some of the characters in my book. If you like quirky books check this out. If not don't waste your time reading the rest of this. I had severe OCD, anxiety attacks, and depression for over thirty years but finally had enough and over came most of it. I wrote a quirky book called Man Interrupted that details how I did it. It's told in a funny way as in, "trying to confront my drug fears I end up having a drug dealer chasing me." I had all kinds of obsessions about germs etc. I would turn faucets off with my feet and so forth. Go to www.amazon.com to check it out. Or pop into a Barnes and Noble and ask for Man Interrupted by James Bailey and if they don't have they will order for you. Let me know? I'm working on the screenplay now. Cheers James. ps if you are in Europe go to www.play.com to check it out as play has free shipping to anywhere within Europe. If you are in NZ go to www.paperplusbooks.co.nz or www.dymocks.co.nz
