I need a reading list. I bought a few books - I'm going to buy a bunch more before I go to Iraq.
God of Small Things ~ Arundati Roy
Depressing.
Good Omens ~ Neil Gaiman, Terri Pratchett
Hilarious. Witty.
The God Gene ~ Dean H. Hamer
Asks more questions than it answers. Mostly supposition. But he has a few interesting premises.
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time ~ Mark Haddon
I think you'll like this one! It provides an interesting perspective.
Anyway, take a look at these. I've bought them, and (therefore) they're on my reading list.
The Cryptonomicon - Neal Stephenson
Quicksilver, Vol. I of the Baroque Cycle
The Confusion, Vol. II of the Baroque Cycle
The System of the World, Vol. III of the Baroque Cycle
All three by Neal Stephenson.
The Plot Against America - Philip Roth (I'm reading this now)
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clark
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Presents America (The Book): A Citizen's Guide
to Democracy Inaction by Jon Stewart
Now I'll have to add Arrowsmith to my list.
hey sadhana,
check out "the red carpet" by lavanya sankaran. it's new, out in April '05 and is receiving rave reviews. it's about life and changes in Bangalore.
take care,
;)arati
I am eagerly waiting for your comments on the book list. That should save me time! Good luck.
