Anthony Burgess


A Clockwork Orange!


Only read the intro and the first 6 page but I can't wait till me next train journey tomorrow!!

I've recently read Animal Farm and Brave new World as well as 1984 Cheesy Still on the shell are We by Yevgeny Zamatin, A day in the life of Ivan Devonisevitch by Aleksandr Isaevich Solzhenitsyn and just ordered Aldous Huxley's Devils of Loudon! All stunning pieces I hope!

Richard Hammond: On the edge.

I've just started it, it comes across as a lazy afternoon read; ie one lazy afternoon and you've read it. Seems to be a good read though, if a little light.

River God by Wilbur Smith. Although in Dutch the title would translate as Valley of the Kings. It's a story based on ancient texts found in a tomb in Egypt. The story tells about the life of Taita, a slave who became one of the most powerful people in Egypt. Just finished the book. Going to buy the second part today.
