Thanks, I bought it for an upper level English class and didn't know what to expect, I am happy to hear it is a good book![]()

Well researched and racily written account of some West of England pirates.

Voices mysterious far and near,
Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
Are calling and whispering in my ear,
Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?
Toward an Anthropology of Women, ed. by Rayna R. Reiter; bought it online but thanks to near incessant postal strikes I am yet to receive it. I ordered it for Gayle Rubin's 'Traffic in Women', which I've had for years in a critical anthology, but one can hardly refer to one of those in an academic work.
Just got back from Barnes and Noble![]()
#1- Why I Write-George Orwell-at the moment I've just revived my addiction of Orwell while in Mexico. I re-read 1984, Animal Farm and read Burmese Days. I've never seen this one in any of the bookstores I've been to and it just called out to me.
#2-Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: And proud of it.![]()
Oh yes! Rowling wrote those some years ago and all the profits go to comic reliefI have them both in English but only Quidditch Through the Ages in Finnish, because someone wanted to read my copy of Magical Beasts and Where to Find Them and I never got it back. I can't buy a new one, because they haven't re-printed it in Finnish

Little Lotte thought of everything and nothing. Her hair was golden as the sun's rays and her soul as clear and blue as her eyes.

Those Who Seek by Daniil Granin
the luminous grass of the prairie hides
feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
but weighty and unmovable
As black Dakota hills. ~ Riesa
The Aquanauts by Daniel Bard was just delivered to me at work about 10 minutes ago. Paperback based on a TV series from 1960 I've been looking forthis on e-bay for almost two years with the attitude that all things come to those who wait--patiently. By-the-by no one has heard of this series and if it ever makes DVDs I shall be annoying the long suffering wife with a marathon viewing.
