Re: Current reads. Reading the heavy stuff....................

Posted by Tom B. on January 24, 2009 at 09:59:44:
reading list is starting me off for 2009.........

Goethe's Faust I & II
Thomas Mann's Dr Faustus
Nietzsche Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Tolstoy's Anna Karenina & various short stories
Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov, Idiot, Crime and Punishment, Notes from the Underground

I've read all of the above (except Mann)2 or 3 times, but a good twenty years ago. After finishing this up..........I'll be going to Homer's Epic Poems and the rest of the Greeks with little Lucretius and Virgil thrown in for good measure.

In 2010....it's Dante's Divine Comedy....huba huba....which I've never read!

I'll be listening to great many shiny beer coasters while reading. This will keep my vinyl addiction under control.....hopefully
