[shade]

The only Atwood I have read is The Handmaid's Tale...and its just a feminist version of 1984.

[sockcrotch]

heart of darkness.

 

It's really good. But a little dense. I think Apocolypse Now was a better take on the concept.

[heyrabbit]

hegemony or survival - chomsky, based on supecanuk's recommendation. it's like reading a never-ending supercanuk post

[Some Random]

agreed. one of very few times that the movie was better than the book. totally dry read.

Yeah, I've only read that, and "Alias Grace". Often I just think she's one of those freaky feminist writers. But for some reason, I really like "Alias Grace". Makes ya think.

[Matt]

-The World of Karl Pilkington

Words by Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, & Karl Pilkington

*Basically, it's the transcripts from "The Ricky Gervais Show" podcasts. I actually quite enjoyed them myself, I have never heard the actual podcasts though.

 

-The Office: The Scripts series 1

By Ricky Gervais & Stephen Merchant

*It's just the first season of scripts for the BBC series, "The Office". It was just something to read to see how similar they are to the show.

 

-The Office: The Scripts series 2

By Ricky Gervais & Stephen Merchant

*It's bascially the same as the first one, except, this time it's season two of the BBC series.

 

-Nineteen Eighty-Four

By George Orwell

*His infamous novel in a society where everyone is watched all the time. I enjoyed this one, but I was left with a little disappointment with the ending.

 

-The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy

By Douglas Adams

*Another well known novel. It's actually pretty humourous. I quite enjoyed the little pot shots it took at humans as well.

 

-The Restaurant At The End of The Universe

By Douglas Adams

*It was pretty good, but this book feels like an inbetween book, so I'm interested in seeing how the third book plays out.

 

-Life, The Universe, and Everything

By Douglas Adams

*This is a well done book, I think it's basically the one where they bring the first two together.

 

-So Long and Thanks For All The Fish

By Douglas Adams

*It's a good book, it's kind have the only piece of the story that wasn't finished off though...

 

-Mostly Harmless

By Douglas Adams

*An alright end to the series, but I was kind have hoping for something more.

 

Now reading: "The Bourne Betrayal" by Eric Van Lustbader.
