I could not stop thinking of that espadrille from Celine so I finally bought it; must be madness at first sight. As I've promised myself I went to Booksale and scoured the shelves for treasure. I got 5 classic books for 210 bucks. A great deal isn't it? The only thing I regretted was leaving 1984 for another day. Here's the list of books I got:
P75 - Vintage Nabokov
P40 - Pudd'nhead Wilson - Mark Twain
P40 - Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck
P40 - The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - Mark Twain
P15 - The Merchant of Venice - Shakespeare
Mom insists I already got a copy of Tom Sawyer but all I can find with my adept indolence is Huck Finn so I bought one. As for my list of Shakespeare books, I have yet to finish King Lear--I think I've postponed reading it for like a year or so already--so the new one will be the second in line. Anyway, it's all going down my Shelfari archive. Yep, I got one. Made one a month ago I think just for the heck of it. Want to be buddies there (although god knows I don't do such)? Send me a message through any means.

I will try to watch the Villareal - Real Madrid match later but I can't promise anything. I'm pretty much knackered already. Ciao.

Christ, I feel bad passing over some of the titles you've enumerated at this blog. Try Robinson Nova, they often churn out titles such as those at P10-P20
as well as guidebooks for Spain.(Frommers and even Lonely Planet-if you're lucky to find one)
SM Fairview is now selling Spanish versions of 11 minutes by Coelho.
LOL I haven't even touched any of those yet. I'm still in swimming in the drama of King Lear (aylavet!). I hate Coelho btw lol.
fks
