Books!

[apollo too]

I have read some serious books, including Atatürk- The re-birth of a Nation;A Peace to End all Peace, Anthony Belvoir's Stalingrad and also Berlin.

However there are two books which I have given-up on. The Seven Pillars of Wisdom and the Lord of the Rings.

I am about to add a third. Hemmingway's A farewell to arms.

Keep away from any of the russian classic authors or Thomas hardy-----deeeee---pressing to say the least

TE Lawrence was a masochistic self delusioned liar who went to the east for the young boys------not a good background for a good read.

I did like lord of the rings though.

A fez of the heart, a book by Jeremy Seal about his travels around Turkey looking for the origin of the fez is an excellent and funny read.

Anyone wants to borrow it then most welcome.

Friend Jeremy followed that up with "Santa-a life" about St. Nich' it didn't sell so well. He is now working on a book based on his canoe trip down the Meander River. [Excuse spelling].
Lovely guy.
Of course I also refer you to Louis D' Berniers' masterpiece "Birds Without Wings"

I did enjoy the film Lawrence of Arabia .

Orhan Pamuk's Snow was hard work to read.

I loved Birds without Wings - can also be reread as there's so much in it.

I gave Chapter 92 to Louis de' B. Of course it's written in his words [and brilliantly]. Gave the same stuff to Jeremy.
