Couple of Books

Written by Courtney Taylor-Taylor on . Posted in Courtney.

From what I’ve read so far, there’s nothing here quite as clever or alluring as the title.

The Geeks Guide to World Domination

A lot of trivium of varying kinds.  Can’t even remember one.

This, on the other hand, is very clever and insightful, but with a not as clever as it wants to be title.

Wishful Drinking

It’s a rant that is half anecdotes from growing up to become a pez dispenser and half bits of wisdom for dealing with what she thinks are her unique problems.  They’re actually very normal problem but often with famous names attached to the anecdotes.  Quick read.  Great for travel.

The Billionaire’s Vinegar

Written by Courtney Taylor-Taylor on . Posted in Courtney.

Another fantastic book.  I seem to be on a roll.

The Billionaire's Vinegar
This one is delivered in an almost dry, fairly impartial tone which only added to my hanging on every word.  Wow what a tale.

Jim The Boy

Written by Courtney Taylor-Taylor on . Posted in Courtney.

Now here’s another quite amazing read.

Jim The Boy

This writer’s voice is such a perfect dusty old pick-up truck that I really thought he’d look like Tom Waits.

I thought wrong.

Anyway, it’s To Kill a Mockingbird but without the huge tragic bit.  Just a series of beautiful incidents which illuminate themes. Or at least that’s one way I see it.

Actually fuck that.  This is just plain awsome.  Read it.

More On “The Forever War”

Written by sea gothman on . Posted in Courtney.

Last week I mentioned that I was reading The Forever War and that I wanted to hear from Richard K. Morgan about it.  Richard just got back to me via Pete:

When I finished The Forever War I actually thought to myself that this is the best book I’ve ever read.  Whether it is or not is irrelevant.  The book is amazing.

From Richard:

Yeah, The Forever War is great.  Haldeman was really there, he served as a combat engineer in Vietnam, was injured in the fighting and invalided home.  The book’s a brilliant metaphor for veteran dislocation.  I met Joe in Gijon a couple of years ago, along with his wife Gay – really lovely couple.

There you have it.
