try this: Take one copy of On The Road by Jack Kerouac... Then pop in The Lonesome Crowded West... Blend well... Viola! The perfect soundtrack to a kick-ass book.
Re: [MMouse]: Any good bookz lately?
Book - "Understanding Comics" by Scott McCloud - A comic book about how comic books "work". I have absolutely no interest in comics whatsoever, but this is easily the most fascinating book I've ever read. If you have any interest in art and how the human mind works, you REALLY should check it out. One of my all-time favorites. Movie - "Bottle Rocket" directed by Wes Anderson - Everyone here should see this movie. Music - "I See a Darkness" by Bonnie "Prince" Billie - This record has been out for a while (early 99), but I just got it a few days ago and it's rocking my world. Possibly the most bizzarely enjoyable album I've heard since "In The Aeroplane Over The Sea". The title track is so beautiful you could pass out and bang your head on something. - Original Message - From: "Shane Overbay" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, June 24, 2000 5:15 AM Subject: [MMouse]: Any good bookz lately? 1.)

Re: [MMouse]: Any good bookz lately?
i'm in the middle of reading a book called "the unbearable lightness of being" by milan kundera. it is so very excellent. and an added bonus for any bright eyes fans is that they obviously thought highly of the book as well. many songs carry similar themes that the book deals with, and on "letting off the happiness" the last song is called tomas and tereza, after 2 main characters in the book. go read it. - GINA

the way of the peaceful warrior by dan millman possible one of the greatest books ever that when you put it down you have all chills. it is a book that makes you live life in a totally new way. youll understand :) the author has more books on the same subject as peaceful warrior, so Everyday Enlightenment is good too. Diet For a New America- explains process of animals... reading will result in vege or vegan activities! Atheism- The case against god. this booked kicked my ass. who would have ever known. its not a case against a Xtian god. it doenst bash. all points. is it possible for a god to exist? ** Jesse ** i read lots but these are a few of my favs

Re: [MMouse]: Any good bookz lately?
My favorite book (The History of Luminous Motion, by Scott Bradfield) was just released as a film. This project has been in the works since 1994, and from what I saw of it on "At the Angelika", the filmmakers screwed up, big time. Makes me sad... Karina

Three recommendations; -- Title: Slaughterhouse-Five (or The Children's Crusade) By: Kurt Vonnegut Jr. Genre: Fiction I'm not entirely sure commentary is even needed for this one, as it's become a near-classic. Vonnegut describes his experiences in World War II, culminating with the bombing of Dresden, Germany, in third-person with a sci-fi twist involving his admission into a human zoo on the planet of Tralfamadore, where they have a very different outlook on the concept of time. It's just really damned good. Probably my favorite book ever. -- Title: The Teachings of Don Juan; A Yaqui Way Of Knowledge By: Carlos Castaneda Genre: Philosophy/Anthropology/New Age Although it's in the non-fiction section of bookstores and libraries, it's so extraordinary that you can't really tell if Castaneda is lying or not. This book details Castaneda's magical training through the use of natural hallucinogenic plants (namely peyote and mescaline) under the tutelage of a Yaqui Indian sorceror named Don Juan down near Sonora, Mexico. I cannot stress how fantastic this book is, as long as you're into the subject matter. -- Title(s): Dragons of Autumn Twilight Dragons of Winter Night Dragons of Spring Dawning By: Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman Genre: Fantasy This is actually the Chronicles trilogy in the TSR/DD Dragonlance line of fantasy novels. In retrospect, the books are somewhat amateurish and sometimes cliched, but for a good year in my early teens, I never stopped reading it. It was also the first novels to ever come out of the DD gaming machine. Of course, you have to be into fantasy in the first place to even like it -- if you are and you haven't read this trilogy, it's Grade A Material, guaranteed. Once in a while I'll still re-read chapters. This series also includes one of my favorite literary characters of all time, Raistlin Majere. Yes, I am a dork at heart. - Matt
