Silas Marner
Unbearable Lightness of Being
Me Talk Pretty One Day
The Futureological Congress

Ready, steady, ok googogogogogogogogogogo vote!!!!

[crisaor]

I vote for HoD. It's time I give Conrad a try.

[Stanislaw]

Come on guys vote For Stanislaw Lem's book, the futurological congress.

It is superb!:cool:

[subterranean]

The thing is why there werent too many people participating in the book discussions....Look at this month book discussion thread..

Anyway, I vote Catch 22..I have read it till chapter 12. I really like to vote for your book Stan, but I can't find it anywhere..:(

[IWilKikU]

Thats my problem too. The only Lem book that I could get without ordering is Osirus or whatever it was called. The one that was addapted to film with Cloony

[Stanislaw]

Solaris?

They are harder to find, but most libraries stock them.

If anyone is looking for a WWII book, The Hospital of Transfiguration is a good one, Its by Lem, not really a sci fi but one of his erlier books.

[pretty eyes]

david sedaris rocks, y'all.

[Sindhu]

Well, I voted for HOD too- looks like it's now tied with Me Talk Pretty one Day.

[subterranean]

If either those 2 win, I won't participate in March discussion, I can't find those books anywhere around :mad:

[Isagel]

You can find Heart of Darkness on this site :-).

You can also buy books from Amazon, they even send books to Sweden. Good for me.

[hadji9]

me talk pretty one day!

[fayefaye]

I hate Heart of Darkness!! Don't do it!!

[Sindhu]

Sorry Faye- but i voted for HOD and I'm glad it seems to be moving ahead:) I think it's a wonderfully constructed book, with deplorable attitudes and assumptions and I Really want to take it on!;)

OK, what I'm confused about is that there's 27 votes, but there definately havn't been 27 people involved in the club in the past months. I think it should be more like 15 votes. And even that is liberal. I really hope I actually see 27 people involved, but I'm skeptical.

[Sindhu]

Um- I tried counting the people who left messages with their votes, Kikand it's about 13. Ok, other people might have voted without leaving messages, but still----

There's 27 votes (hence 27 different users), but fewer people, if you catch my drift.

[Andalus]

I'm hoping to participate in this one. I vote for Heart Of Darkness.

[subterranean]

Yea many people voted but not many participate. I wonder :rolleyes:

Excuse me peeps, but is the HoD that is being nominated now is the one written by Joseph Conrad?

*I'm soo ashamed about this*

[Cassandra]

I'd like to participate if I can get hold of the book. What exactly do you do? General disscussion?

[Sindhu]

Yes, Sub it is the Conrad book.
:)
Cassandra, the book is available on this site if you can't get it otherwise- and yes, general discussion is pretty much the idea:)

[Cassandra]

Thanks Sindhu, are you allowed to print off the site or is that against copywrite?

[Sindhu]

OF COURSE you can print off the site. All texts here are out of copyright.:)

[Cassandra]

Nice!

[IWilKikU]

however, its probably less expensive in the long run to just buy a paperback than it is to use all that ink and paper printing. Check used book stores and charity shops like Oxfam.

[Cassandra]

I onlt meant for odd pages to note or take to school, the rest I can read off the computer.

[IWilKikU]

HoD wins. Get to reading guys.

[Cassandra]

Yes Sir!

[Dick Diver]

The horror, the horror.....
