Thanks :) We were really lucky with the weather when we finally managed to get off Dublin and visit some nearby places like Bray, Greystones or Portmarnock. Great places. All of them.
Thanks Niamh, you're quite right. Though maybe the last letter should be more like 'ch' so, all in all, hello in Polish is ches-sh-ch :) Good luck with the pronunciation everybody.......
Kiss Me Red - ELO
Can't Take My Eyes Off You - Frankie Valli
A few Polish words (hope all the weird letters will stay intact):
książka - book
cześć - hello (or bye)
szczęście - luck
As to the pronunciation, well I've no idea how to convey it in...

Endymion is right, Montejo writes in Spanish. He's from Venezuela, I believe. I got to know about him from the film. In "21 Grams" the main protagonist, played by Sean Penn, quotes the poem. The film...

How about "The Monk" by Matthew Gregory Lewis? A lot of action, twists and intricate plot. You just want to go on reading... Or Sue's "Mysteries of Paris", which has pretty similar characterisitics.
I studied in York last semester and there are loads of second-hand bookshops, and I bought there so many books that I was hardly able to come back with them all :) The very last I bought was "Harry...
I also hate this book. Generally, Vonnegut. I've read several of his books and I don't like any one of them. He is the favourite writer of my close friend and we always argue about his prose. But I...

Hehe, I was lucky with this one, I had a glossary at the end of the book. Though it was tiring to look at the back of the book every 5 words.
There was a film based on this book. I quite liked it, really. Sort of magical realism, like GG Marquez.
I'm studying English and American literature and we've had loads of literary theory throughout the studies and hardly anybody likes it. I think it's because it's a difficult subject and most teachers...
