Hi all,

I joined this forum because I was looking for a place to discuss all the classic literature I like to read, but I was amazed to see all the philosophy that was being discussed. I love philosophy, and am excited to read some the works I seen mentioned, so I can join in the discussions. I'm, also, interested in posting some short stories I wrote on here. I think I'm going to like this site.

Here's a list of my favorite books, so people can understand what I'm interested in.

1984 and Animal Farm - George Orwell
Walden - Henry David Thoreau
The Road - Cormac McCarthy
Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte
All Shakespeare and Hemingway (Macbeth and The Old Man and the Sea are my favorites though)

There are a lot of others I like, but these are ones that really stuck with me. Also, I read a lot of non-fiction books about history, and scholarly articles from academic journals concerning international politics and recent history. I am trying to read some science books, but haven't put near the effort into them that I should be.

Are you actually the Neko Case, as in the musician? 'Cause that'd be cool.

Haha, my first response to the user name was the thought that the last New Pornographers album was a little bit of a let down.
