Guest Tease2 Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 I absolutely adore Hemingway not only for his deceptively simple prose, but also because he was a man's man: prodiguously intelligent, sensitive, humorous, adventurous -- sometimes reckless. The guy was one of the toughest men ever: people fail to see that because he died by his own hand.  I like Marquez for the cleverness of his short stories. Of course, we all know the language is brilliant and stunning. When he describes flowers, you can smell them off the page. Others I like are Borges, Graham Greene, Nick Joaquin -- of course, Robert Graves, John Gardner. There are more but to list them all down would be a ridiculous effort. I do not read pop lit, unfortunately. The loss is mine. Quote Link to comment

boyet Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 Joshua Harris....the author of "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" and "Boy Meets Girl" Wow! I never tought someone from MTC would read that book (I kissed dating goodbye). I read it two years ago due to overwhelming depression...I might read it again :cry: eventually... I'm still hooked with Anne Rice's novels. Halos matapos ko na yung 8 libro nya sa Vampire chronicles and I'm still planning to continue 'till the very last book. Plano ko rin basahin yung mga erotica novel nya with Beauty. Mukhang ok kasi dark ang erotic yung novel. I just hope I'll be able to find the first book ...there's one erotic novel I've read with the title "Exploits of the young Don Juan"...lupit nun!!! Grabe nakalimutan ko lang yung author kasi ang tagal na nung nabasa ko yun.  Nabasa ko na din yung "Alchemist" ni Paulo Coelho; "Tuesdays with Morrie" ni Mitch Albom (syet naiyak ako dito); a couple of Robert Ludlum novels; "Amistad" ni David Pesci at hindi ko na maalala yung iba pa...

boyet Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 unang-una na libro ko nga palang nabasa yung ABAKADA. Natapos ko din yun nung bago ako mag grade 1. Sino bang may akda nun?!?! Quote Link to comment

Elai Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 Charlotte Bronte author of Jane Eyre.  It is the story of an orphan who later becomes a governess and finds a lover. This was Bronte’s most successful novel and it remains her most famous work. Much of Jane Eyre is said to be based on Charlotte’s own unhappy childhood. Quote Link to comment
Crash-of-Light Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 For me it would be, Ernest Hemingway> simple, raw, you can almost hear the bulls running behind you in Pamplona, or smell the ground after the rain in Africa John Steinbeck> Grapes of Wrath, Cannery Row Stephen Ambrose> non-fiction( D-day, Band of Brothers, Pegasus Bridge, Citizen Soldiers) JRR Tolkien> the best fantasy ever written Gabriel Garcia Marquez> 100 years of Solitude Renato Constantino> Dissent and Counter Consciousness Harper Lee> To k*ll a Mockingbird ( too bad Gregory Peck is now gone, played Atticus Finch in the movie version) Stephen King> The Stand, Dark Tower series( wondering when will book 5 come out?)
