Currently Reading...

The Shell Game by Steve Alten
Presented as a novel, it is an eye opening expose of 9-11 with a lot of truth behind it.

The ode less travelled by Stephen Fry
It's about poetry...he explains all about meter, enjambments, caesuras, etc. and different forms.

Re: Currently Reading...
it is kind of sad in a hemingway kind of way but the details and civil war thoughts and images are really cool......i have never seen the movie and have had the book tucked away for years and finally pulled it out and finished it just the other day.......i would recomend it but i do see where it could be very depressing.....lol
