The Magdalen Martyrs - Ken Bruen

Blitz - Ken Bruen

Reality

From The Glass Rainbow - James Lee Burke
"If you're lucky, at a certain age you finally learn not to contend with the world or try to explain that the application of reason has little or nothing to do with the realities that exist just on the other side of one's finger tips."

The other side of silence

The Other Side of Silence - Andre Brink

Tale of a gruesome experience of an immigrant woman in German Southwest Africa.

Beautiful descriptions of the African desert.

From the book Saint-Exupery, by Stacy Schiff

"I've reworked all the numbers.  They confirm the opinion of the specialists:  It cannot be done.  We have only one option: To go ahead and do it."

Legends of the Fall

Author: Jim Morrison

"He reached for her hand and after a while she joined his deep and dreamless sleep, wound about each other with all the loneliness faded at last from the earth."

Great, quick book. Sometimes too quick but nevertheless a great novella. A rare case where the movie is as good as the book.
