Cozy at a local cafe with the latest book to hit my doorstep - Divine Beauty: The Invisible Embrace by John O'Donohue.

I really enjoyed Anam Cara and am looking forward to the positive perspective this text will bring me.

Read "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" last night apparently the writer made a video game for it as well might have to check that
Kafka is a bitch to translate.
Read some in English and Russian out of curiosity and something very important is missing. This is obviously always the problem with translations but Kafka looses more than a lot of other authors because of it.

Excellent stories. Read nearly all of them.

I love this line, from where I do not know: "Gregor Samsa woke up, found he had not turned into an insect, and stormed off to find the author who had been spreading these nasty rumours about him ..."

As a whiny, self-centred musician who doesn't have too many fans, The Hunger Artist is my favourite.
