as much as i hate reading books that are recent and popular
(for some reason it makes me feel dirty)
i should probably read curious tale of the dog in the night or whatever.
lets do this
yizzir!
you fannying east tonight breddo?
yep
only the first chapter thumbed.
really didn't like that book at all
i realise this is not what you were asking and I am the only person in the world who doesn't get Garcia Marquez.
actually
wait a darn second, I DO have a copy. What do you want to swap for it?
No I agree
The hyper-exaggerated (?) style gets tedious after the first half.
{end of sub-debate]
There that should do it.
[dusts hands]
ooh
see above
If Chuckles Allcock beats you to it, feel free to swap another
ZOMGOSH DIS BOOKSWAP!
wooops
wrong reply!
arrrgh oh you know what I mean!
I'll sneakily re-open the debate
( whispers) Love in the time of cholera was also shit.
Yes
But I left it at my parent's cos it was too boring.
Leave it
and read Hopscotch instead.
Cortazar is betterbetterbetterbetterbetterbetterbetter. I think I blame Garcia Marquez a little bit for so many LatAm novelists not getting the recognition they deserve.
Then finish Solitude later. It's great, don't get me wrong, but it can wait.
alternatively
he's raised the profile of south american writing abroad much more than anyone else. although i dont really like his books much so hmmm.
try the big Oxfam bookshop in dalston.
i can't wait to go there :)
you cant wait to go
somewhere that's 20 minutes walk from your house?
why havent you been there?
WHY?
yes
forever unread
yes
but it's all highlighted with notes on it which i need to write my dissertation for english.
so no.
Just get a bus full of students
One of 'em will be reading it - look over her shoulder
That's just impractical
I'd have to catch the same bus for quite a little while and the girl would get worried, quite rightly so
plus the bus fares would probably end up costing more than buying the book again.
It's just not really realistic, I'm sorry.
