Fiction? Politics?
A couple to get you started:
Michael Ondaatje - In the Skin of a Lion
Oscar Wilde - The Importance of Being Earnest
Chomksy for Politics
Dan Brown, Douglas Coupland for fiction
There's a little bit of everything in there. |
awesome pics...in the skin of a lion = absolutely outstanding!!!
i just read: "the five people you meet in heaven"- by michael albom

Sure thing!
It has been called "One of the most influential literary works of our time". It also won the Nobel Prize in literature so im sure it isnt too shabby ;) |

I found this one to be one of his better readings. Having now read a lot of his works, I'm begining to get a little saturated with his ideas. Not as great as I once thought. |

I felt exactly the same about paulo coelho after reading Alchemist. Alchemist was a pleasant but I could sorta predict what he was getting at and all the 'learnings' part of it... |

The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari ~ Discover Your Destiny by Robin Sharma.
One of the most powerful and most enriching books i've read in years!
I'm attending his 'Awakening Best Self' Seminar in King City @ the Kingbridge Centre this whole weekend (& ditching vibe & lawler for this :( ). It will be a life changing experience! People from all over the world are flying in for this but luckily, or coincidentally?, i live a 15 min drive from King Township.
Tomorrow nite, another journey begins. ;)
