By my calculations, the book for this month is The Secret Agent. I believe Hitchcock's movie, Sabotage, is loosely based on the book. Is anyone else reading...

It would be really nice to be more active. I think the trouble is that wečre just all busy with real life sometimes. I, for example really, really want to...

I read "The Sun Also Rises" many years ago. I can't remember him going into any elaborate descriptions of bull-fighting. At the time I read it, I wasn't very...
I have read "The Sun Also Rises" and a lot of other Hemingway years ago. I remember TSAR as being one of my favorites because of the vivid descriptions of a ...
I just finished TSAR and I think this is not the type of book for which a "spoiler" can be written so this should be safe for anyone to read. I am not all that...
I've started thinking about Jake Barnes as the "unreliable narrator". It is interesting to think that this story might read a lot differently if told from say...
Now if I could only figure out how to afford to bum around Europe, drinking and swimming. The Hemmingway I read, along with The Net by Murdoch, and a couple...
Since TSAR went so fast for me I think I'll go back and try and pick up The Secret Agent. I really like Conrad and if I read and post quickly maybe you will...
