[PL] Nie, Ulysses nie jest. Nie rozumiem fenomenu Bukowskiego, wulgarnosc bez zadnego celu, ani to smieszne ani pouczajace. Wlasnie zastanawia mnie czemu w Californication jest tyle nawiazan do Bukowskiego, bo glownego bohatera z Chinaskim laczy tylko i wylacznie zamilowanie do uzywek. Vonneguta czytales?
[PL] Podobno Hank Moody to kolejne odbicie Bukowskiego. Nawet alter ego Bukowskiego ma ksywke Hank. Z reszta to samo alter ego to babiarz i ochlej. Przeczytam wiecej ksiazek Bukowskiego - dam znac czy sa powiazania z Californication.
Co do Vonneguta, to nie czytalem. Teraz koncze Kosmiczna Odyseje, a pozniej de Sade'a cos tam mam. A polecasz jakies jego konkretne powiesci czy wszystko, co mi wpadnie w rece z jego dziel? [/PL]
[PL] Polecam Ci Rzeznie nr 5 i Zegnaj czarny poniedzialku, czyli sniadanie mistrzow. Swietny styl, smieszny, ale jednoczesnie powazny. Nie sadzilem, ze pogadam z kims o ksiazkach na crossfire :D
That's what I've heard, but I thought the actresses were beautiful, and the landscapes were amazing :)
For now I'm a little disappointed by the books, I don't like the way Kahlan talks to Cara, while they had an interesting relation in the TV show. I hope it gets better. Anyway, back to my book :D
it will..also like the father son stuff more then this annoying brother thingy in the show which actually destroys like the half of the story later on :P
Maybe reading it didn't change my life, but at the age of 12 it blew my mind
Ten Little Niggers (Agatha Christie)
Honorable mentions:
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Douglas Adams)
The Hobbit, or There and Back Again (J.R.R Tolkien)
The Icewind Dale Trilogy (R.A Salvatore)
Inheritance Cycle (Christopher Paolini)
One of the last books I throughly enjoyed was, 'The Secret of Crickley Hall' by James Herbert. Not necessarily my favorite but very enjoyable.
For my favorite book, I'd go for a short story by Howard Lovecraft from the book, 'Weird Tales' titled, "The Rats in the Walls'. Read this years ago and I loved the fact that I was reading a story that mentioned a cat called, "NIGGERMAN". Also, it was very mysterious and fucked with my young mind. As the years have gone by, I read most of his other work but I'll always love the rats in the motherfucking walls.
