Fences and Windows by her is pretty good, too.

you should also read: The Rebel Sell by Joseph Heath and Andrew Potter...they have a pretty interesting critique of Klein in their book.

the da vinci code by dan brown (gotta see what all this fucking talk is about)

and

five bodies by john o'neill

Have you read Kalle Lasn's book?

is that "Culture Jam"? no, i haven't read it yet, but i'm interested in reading it for sure. that's the editor for Adbusters right?

Rayeine · #**1084** (**permalink**) Apr 06, 06

sure thing.

It's interesting..it's also a good book to lend out to people as kind of like an introduction to those unfamiliar..or in denial of the scuzzy madness.
It's one of those books that makes you want to break something.

sidekick · #**1085** (**permalink**) Apr 06, 06

yeah, i'll probably pick it up at some point soon. it's on my list of books i need to buy/read.

Rayeine · #**1086** (**permalink**) Apr 14, 06

The Holy Barbarians - Lawrence Lipton.

quite the title.

I still cant get over that his son is James Lipton...the guy with the pointy beard who does those Inside the actors studio interviews?..To have such a beatniky father like that and be so conservative.

I finished Da Vinci Code a week ago. It wasn't nearly as good as Angels and Demons. I was kind of disappointed in it, actually.

I'm currently reading The Kit Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I'm about half way through. I had to put it down last night because it was getting really intense. I love novels that explore the complexities of human nature what it comes to dealing with friendship and hardship.

I've read The Alchemist and my friend just lent me Eleven Minutes today. Have you read those?

I also bought a used copy of Valley of the Dolls. Pretty excited to start it.

Ok, so Eleven Minutes kinda sucked for me. I hate it when men try to write about female sexuality.

LOVED Valley of the Dolls.
