My mate has been going on about this book and how great it is for years. I have resisted reading it, finding Rand's theory of objectivism to be overly idealistic and unrealistic. I finally decided to give it a whirl. So far (less than 50 pages out of 750+) it seems an interesting read but I find the central character's lack of empathy, which borders on sociopathy, less than endearing.

Just been re-reading collections of science fiction stories by Cordwainer Smith, such as A planet called Shayol.

Strange and brilliant writer...

Very interesting read.

The Damned (La Bas) by J.-K. Huysmans, author of the magnificent A Rebours/Against Nature. A late 19th century writer writes a biography of Gilles de Rais, the 15th century occultist and murderer of children, and gets sucked into Satanism. What's not to love?

I'm just starting Day of the Triffids after having finished The Book of Ultimate Truths by Robert Rankin.

I am reading a book, but it's identity must temporarily remain a secret for a reason I unfortunately cannot elaborate upon.

Are you reading my diaries again?

Sounding mysterious doesn't make you look like any less of a dork that you already are.

Reading is for clever people

As I said, I am unable to elaborate at this time.
