all monsters and dust

18.1.04

reading list

One of my resolutions for this year is to read all the unread -- or unfinished -- books cluttering up my bookshelf. Most of these books have been there for years and I figure that it's about time I read them and/or get rid of them or both. Thus, I give you my 2004 reading list:

1. Volkswagen Blues by Jaques Poulin
2. Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
3. Cannery Row by John Steinbeck
4. A Passage to India by EM Forster
5. A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

6. Seven Poor Men of Sydney by Christina Stead
7. The City of Joy by Dominique Lapierre
8. For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway*
9. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig
10. Wolf Willow by Wallace Stegner
11. Lonesome Traveler by Jack Kerouac
12. Siddartha by Herman Hesse
13. The Good Woman of Setzuan by Bertolt Brecht
14. Roundheads and Peakheads by Bertolt Brecht
15. Jungle of Cities by Bertolt Brecht
16. The Wild Duck by Henrik Ibsen
17. An Enemy of the People by Henrik Ibsen
18. A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen


So, we'll see.

*Not technically finished, but, rather, given up on.
 




about

"The mind of the thoroughly well informed [person] is a dreadful thing. It is like a bric-a-brac shop, all monsters and dust, and everything priced above its proper value."
