Books that I am currently reading



Currently reading:
Author: Title: Comments:

Cox, Sidney "Indirections for those who want to Write" It is a bit old and wordy but well worth reading at least so far.

O'Conner, Patricia T.
"Words Fail Me: What Everyone who Writes Should Know about Writing"
I just began to read this book.

Pattison, Eliot "The Skull Mantra" This novel won the Edgar. It is going well and is easy to read.

Pamuk, Orhan "Other Colors: Essays and a Story" This author is from Turkey and won the Nobel Prize in Literature a few years ago. This is my first attempt to read him. The book was on sale.

Turgenev, Ivan "Sketches From a Hunter's Album" This was recommended by one of my books that I put somewhere and not listed here. This is a surprise for me. I love it. It is a wonderful little book.

Zafon, Carlos Ruiz "The Angel's Game" I loved this author's last book, "The Shadow of the Wind" but am finding this book hard to get through. I have not given up as yet.

Currently re-reading:

Altman, Donald "Art of the Inner Meal: Eating as a Spiritual Path" This is another book that I had read before but forgot. I saw my notes and the date that I read it.

Kornfield, Jack "After the Ecstasy, the Laundry: How the Heart Grows Wise on the Spiritual Path" I thought I bought this book and forgot it. Imagine my surprise when I opened it and found my notes all through the book. It is well worth reading it again.
