"Samson Agonistes" - John Milton (Just finished "Paradise Lost)
"The Idiot" - Fyodor Dostoevsky (Halfway through, like to take it very slowly - "Brothers Karamazov" is in my Top3, Dosto is too good)
"El ingenioso hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha" - Miguel de Cervantes (Finishing Book 2/5, also slowly, about 1 book per year)
What do I plan on reading soon?
"Everything is Illuminated" - Jonathan Safran Foer (Read "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" < very creative cutting-edge contemporary writing)
"Dirt Music" - Tim Winton
How about you?
Have a great day!
  cna't find it |

O Povo Brasileiro - Darcy Ribeiro (The brazillian people).
A deep study about the formation of brazillian identity & society, indians, niggers and colonizators. Very interesting for history lovers.

"The Mayor of Casterbridge" Thomas Hardy
A few good morals to learn from the book, although it's ancient!

Goa isn't what it always seem to be. ..Then I will start on a friends present, Sri Isopanisad: The Knowledge That Brings One Nearer to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna which is a speacial book for him, so I'm looking forward to reading it. The book I finished before I started the 'Food / God' book was a great book by Eckhart Tolle which kind of just read my mind.. strange & cosmic.
