My current reading for the upcoming week of courses is:

Robert Fogel,The Fourth Great Awakening and the Future of Egalitarianism.

Christopher Lasch, The Culture of Narcissism: American Life in An Age of Diminishing Expetations.

Herbert Marcuse, Reason and Revolution.

J.P.A. Pocock, The Machiavellian Moment: Florentine Political Thought and the Atlantic Republican Tradition.

Exciting I know, but we all have our thing.

Something Rotten by Jasper Fforde

When I have finished that I am going to re-read my Terry Pratchett books as there probably won't be many more coming out.

Just started Frost On My Mustache:Arctic Exploits of a Lord and a Loafer by Tim Moore.

[ZZtigerZZ81]

Just picked up a couple from the library

The Army of the Republic by Stuart Archer Cohen (just looked interesting, never heard anything about it)

And Lazarus Project by Aleksanar Hemon
about a jewish immigrant from eastern Europe in 1908 that gets killed by the chief of police in Chicago when offered a letter.
Heard it was one of the better books last year. We'll see.

Oh Swp... you have fantastic taste in literature. Oh and I heard they're making Call of Cthulu into a movie... but then I saw the trailer and don't want to see it.

Glad to know there's another horror buff in here.

(ever read Neil Gaiman? not necessarily horror, but definitely fantastical)
