James Michener's ..The Drifters

ANYTHING by Robert Ludlum. I am going through his entire collection right now and each book is fantastic.

I recommend the Bourne Identity, and then follow up with the two novels after because they really give you a great story. I haven't seen the movie so I can't say if it compares, but when I saw Matt Damon doing Kung Fu moves.... well I wasn't impressed.

Also good stuff, Andy McNab. He has fiction and non-fictional books, excellent writter actually. His fiction books are very interesting. He's an ex-SAS sergant so some of ths stuf you read is pretty freaky

a few recent books...

fruits
------
Weird Japanese fashion book.

labyrinths by borges
------------
Short stories. This guy writes so well he makes me lose it.

turtles, termites, and traffic jams by resnick
-----------------------------------------
Read concurrently with creative evolutionary systems (bentley), swarm intelligence (kennedy), the selfish gene (dawkins), and chaos (gleick), it's a fun kick in the pants.

snowcrash by neal stephenson (and his others)
--------------
i had to re-read this crazy shit. better than neuromancer by far.

programming perl by larry wall
----------------------
a programming book, but perfectly written.

I need a THICK and GOOD book that will make my brain ache.
...and I don't mean any children's book. I want some, maybe philosophical, or a book that'll make me think about things. I haven't found anything intresting sofar.

But you want a story?? Or a pyschology or sociology books etc..?

If you want a fucked up story, read The Regulators...(either Richard Bachman or Stephen king...Hard to say cause Bachman was supposed to be dead...but now he's back with another book...King is weird...)

If you want philosophical books they're a tons of good one...But I've read a lot at college in philosophical class...so I was looking more for entertaining books for the holidays ;)

Edit: a lot of typos..(I just woke up :Graucho )

I don't think stories will be enough. I do enjoy a good story, but my mind craves something to think.

My favourite novel is Remembrances of Things Past, by French writer Marcel Proust. Seven volumes, 3,000 pages, no heroes, no vilains, just real life. The English title is not very proper, the original in French was A la Recherche du Temps Perdu, or Searching for Lost Time.


Recently, I liked The Code Book or The Book of Codes (is there any difference?). After reading how the Polish guy alone deciphered Enigma after the British Secret Service had given up, itīs interesting to think about how intelligence is superior to $$$.
