I also read The Passage, is it a wonderful book or what? The best book of
that genre yet.

I found it hard to put the book down...the book easily drew me on and on with a wish to know where the story would take me. As I mentioned previously, looking forward to the next book in the trilogy.

Just finished: Lear's daughters by Marjorie B. Kellogg. This is a updated combination
of two previous novels ( The Wave and Flame/ Reign of Fire ). This is a 739 page
thriller based on ecologically challenged Earth's invasion of planet Fiix for it's rich
supply of Lithium.

Varlam Shalamov, Kolyma Tales (Russia, or maybe I should say Soviet Union)

Wow. Short stories based on the author's experiences of 20 years in GULAG. Tempting to draw comparisons to Solzhenitsyn, but probably unfair to both of them.
Michel Onfray, Nietzsche (France)
Nietzsche's life, retold as graphic novel. Tells you more about the person than the ideas, and revels a bit too much in hero worship, but interesting.
Zakes Mda, The Whale Caller (South Africa)
It's a love triangle between a man, a woman, and a right whale. And it's often kind of beautiful even when it's messed up as hell.

Just finished William F. Buckley Jr.'s God & Man at Yale. His criticism of a lack of religious orthodoxy at Yale was rather weak, though his arguments picked up momentum when it came to the economics department and what constituted a good curriculum. Definitely a treat, though not a person I usually agree with.
