Silence - dumb - silence? No? You didn't mean that?

I am taking photos of the pages each chapter at a time and reading on the phone. I read "The 48 laws of power" before but it was years ago and I have changed. Already read "Keep Calm And Carry On" also but just feel it's worth reading again.
Just download it from here (credit to Batty)

I meant that the Hannibal series of books has a dumb ending.

Katherine Anne Porter: Collected Stories and Other Writings (Library of America #186)

Seldom mentioned in popular contemporary lit discussions Porter's short fiction was very good - Pale Horse, Rider makes for a good intro (covers the pandemic of 1918) if you've not read her novel, Ship of Fools.

Read The Turner Diaries. It's really inspiring with a positive message.
