read, read, and read some more

i have bought Gary Zukav’s Seat of the Soul.it seems interesting in the first few pages.

I am currently reading two books;
1.A book of poems by Roomi
2.A book on NLP.

This friend of mine says she did not like Love in the Times of Cholera.i had liked it when i read it 5 years back .But i have forgotten why i had liked it so much .Will anyone remind me why it is such a good book.?

Here is the list she was kind enough to send so promptly:1. Night by Elie Wiesel
2. Notes from Underground by Dostoevsky
3. _The Subterraneans by Jack Kerouac

but due to change in my job primarily , i have not been able to read much .i miss my reading .The only way out is to cut down on sleep .I wonder.Any suggestions?

Sometimes i think reading is like listening while writing is like talking .But surprizingly , we regard listening more important than talking while we regard reading less important than writing .Can some one explain why this is so ? Sometimes i do find writing to be an exercise in egoism and arrogance.

Today i completed the reading of Hamlet.Sounds very arrogant but i will say it .i am really impressed by the insights and writing style and command over language , of Shakespeare.This book tells how classics are written.And to tell you , i feel that all of us have little Hamlets hidden within us.

I completed reading Anna Karenina.A true classic.Now i am reading Hamlet .

I begin Anna Karenina tomorrow …Melissa , bluewhale , thank you for motivating me for it.

Hamlet , Antigone, Anna Karenina…...Which one should i take up for reading?Please help , and fast if possible.
