Im looking for inspiration - so what have you read recently that you'd recommend?
bed.
Kafka On The Shore - Haruki Murakami
Properly magical writer. Throughout the entire book you feel as though you're reading about our reality, only nudged 1mm to the left. It's very odd. Exactly the same with the other book of his I read: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.
Weaveworld - Clive Barker (well, re-read it - I have read it about 5 times now).
Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck (well I read it ages ago but have been meaning to re-read it recently - every single living adult should be made to read this masterpiece).
I really enjoyed the last Iain Banks. "Transitions" I think ? (can never remember book names since the dawn of the e-reader)
Attention All Shipping by Charlie Connelly is proving to be a very good read indeed.
Also recommend Sebastian Faulks "Birdsong" for a more boysy action read. It's about WW1 and the guys who dug under the German trenches. Minimal on the sloopy romance stuff.
Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell.
James Lee Burke - The Glass Rainbow!
The latest in a series about Lousiana cop Dave Robicheaux.
His writing style is pure poetry. 😀
+1 hels - it is a wonderful book and it fired my interest in reading factual accounts of the two world wars. And the one book I would recommend in that vein is 'With The Jocks' by Peter White.
Bit dated and non fiction, but apache by ed macy, 1000 button pushes just to get her off the ground. 😯
A Fine Balance - Rohinton Mistry
But it depends what else you like really
Crash by JG Ballard,I forgot how disturbing it was
Just started A Clockwork Orange
Iain m banks - surface detail
his best yet (IMO), simply awesome
Just finished rereading Michael Marshall Smith's One of Us.
One of my faves.
Edit: Currently rereading Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse 5. With all this rereading, I maybe need some new books...
