Anybody up for that? I can go snooping around my library to find an obscure book.

This one only went well , because Tsuwm was so kind to give some clues to the attentive reader. I just learned from this one , by your explications how I should make a definition. But still , this sounds like fun too. Heart of Darkness maybe? Last edited by BranShea; 03/08/2007 7:09 PM.

Any book here mentioned looses instantly it's obscureness. If I said : Camera Obscura by Hildebrand which none of you could possibly know; see, it looses it's obscureness just by mentioning it. No? I'm loosing hope.It was a joke! A Joke!
