Fall of Giants by Ken Follett.
Very good so far - a novel set just before, during and just after the First World War. It deals extensively with the reasons (such as there were any) for that and the Bolshevik revolution.

Ulysses by James Joyce. I'm on page 11 and I'm already lost. Although I did enjoy the use of the word scrotumtightening to describe the sea, but that's about the only bit I've understood.

You REALLY don' t want to read " Finnegan's Wake " then. It makes " Ulysses " read like " Andy Pandy".

I once gave up on this too. Try The Dubliners instead.

If you're looking for streams of consciousness, I suggest you read ********.

Since I feel sorry for myself far more often than I should, I've decided to start reading a book called 'Still Me' by Christopher Reeve. Its about the earlier days of his total paralysis. I believe he wrote one more.
Sadly he didnt make it, and to compound the situation, his loving wife Dana, who'd stood by his side througout his courageous battle died not too long after he did at just 44 years of age.
