Cleopatra, a Life. The astuonding tale of despicable unhappiness and joy (or something like that...)

Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer was recommended to me... Or, how about Norman Mailer's Tough Guys don't Dance. This is one I've read. Mailer is the author who Hemingway was always pretending to be.

SOOOOO? What are we gonna read?

Let's read the Gospel According to the Son! It'll be good discussion material.

Or how about let's throw book titles in a hat and draw one?

Maybe next time we can do the hat drawing. I think that just might be more equitable than voting.

Maybe voting could still work. In a group this small, perhaps any strong advance objection to the nomination of a particular book should be tantamount to veto power. In this last instance, I think we had a good list of nominees to vote on, but there was One Particular Book that at least two members had little to no interest in reading. At the very least, I can say that all the books on the last list looked great to me, except for That One.
