It is a fatal miscarriage, so ill to order affairs, as to pass for a fool in one company, when in another you might be treated as a philosopher. Jonathan Swift
I've just started to get interested in the Agatha Christie books. So I'm starting with Poirot, but I will definately read the books with Miss Marple as well.Originally Posted by Antiquarian
You can't go wrong with Agatha Christie!
I'm a Miss Marple fan myself.I usually read the books in order, so that's what I'm doing. First all the Poirot in order, and then maybe Miss Marple.
Racine's Fedra and Camus' Plague.
Plato - The Republic, and The 5 Dialogues.

A History of Modern Britain by Andrew Marr I've been watching the re-run of Marr's series on television and enjoying it imensely. Marr was chief political editor at the BBC for years and as such has a first hand knowledge of world affairs and Britain's place in them. He has an air of slightly ironic detachment which gives his interpretation of events a certain authority. I'm looking forward to reading the book now that I have seen the tv programmes.
Last litt. book i bought:
"Little Women" by Louisa Marie Alcott
Last info book i bought:
"Get Rich" by (i forgot the author..hehe!)
