Some dated and insensitive language in this 1984 potboiler:

I propose to amend it to "dig a hole in the pavement to the strains of a trans" and shall be making a suggestion to that effect in a letter to the publisher.

The title of this 1998 book has aged incredibly poorly but the analysis of how the conflict with Israel functioned as the organizing principle of intra-Arab politics in the 1950-1970s is very impressive.

The first one is all too relevant to these times we're living in.

i finished Xenos, book one of the Eisenhorn quadrilogy, yesterday and have started the second short story, called Missing in Action.

i am also re-reading the Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy and will be start re-reading The Restaurant at the End of the Universe as soon as i finish.

Back when I still believed that Canada's multicultural democracy was under serious strain but fundamentally salvageable.
