I'm reading several books at the moment....

Berlin - the downfall by Anthony Beevor. If you've read Stalingrad then this is more of the same.

9/11 by Noam Chomsky. A selection of interviews with Chomsky on the subject of 9/11 and its implications and background.

The Queen of Whale Cay by some one who's name escapes me. It both amazed me and freaked me.

The sorcerer's apprentice by John Richardson. One should always read a book written by a namesake! It's about Picasso's one-time companion, the author, and his relationship with the master.

My name escapes me by Sir Alec Guinness. A wildly witty diary by the octogenarian actor.

I have several other books I'd like to read but I have far more pressing reading in the form of technical manuals. Mmmmmm.....
