Kazuo Ishiguro: Never Let Me Go
It's one of the best books I've ever read. And I read a lot. |
^ Love that book - I think I was depressed for days after I discovered there was no such recording as Songs After Dark... :rolleyes: Have you gotten to the part where they visit Ruth's "possible"?
 (I started this afternoon, and I plan to be done by 2 am this morning) |
Actually I was re-reading it. The first time I read it I couldn't sleep properly for a few days. It was so strong, so sad, so disturbing.
I'm glad you like it, too. It's written perfectly. I love its impassionate style. |
I just started
 and although it's hilarious, I get slightly depressed each time I finish a chapter...poor Mr. Pratchett. :( |
 I'm nearing the middle of the book and it's getting less confusing, but still, I'm intrigued in an not-entirely-pleasant way. There are many surprising things, but mostly it's beautiful. I love the flow of images the words evoke. |

'Voices', an illustrated anthology of poetry from various sources. The illustrations are not directly related to the poems, but are often indirectly related in wonderful ways :)

 (I've never read them in English so far + I needed my dose of fairy tales ;)) |

Nope, first edition 1989. Sent to me by a friend who spent most of her childhood living here and there in Asia as the daughter of the last American ambassador to Burma. Sorry for hijack, also reading:

^Ohhhhhhh. Flashback to 1994, when I was reading that in Arizona, and digging a really big hole, both literally and figuratively.

A Black Rose
A black rose can stop the beat of ones heart A black rose bring the scent of death as it tears love apart A black rose makes nightmares reality A black rose fills my life with uncertanty A black rose is forgoten hopes and dream A black rose is a broken man laying in tears and painful screams A black rose is the pain of a widowed wife A black rose is lost love in my hopless life A black rose is the memorys that haunt my restless soul A black rose took everthing from me that once made me whole Glenn McGahan |
Just finished
