Poor Tawm! That blows!
Am reading a Japanese language course (The Japanese word for I is watakushi), and a Hermann Hesse story collection. I loved The Prodigy by him very much. Oh, and there's Susan Straight's I Been In Sorrow's Kitchen And Licked Out All The Pots. I'm not reading it, but that title rocks!

For the Japanese Book you're reading - is it to learn Japanese?? (I get you know how to say "I") - but is it a story about the culture or to learn the dialect?

Learning languages is a hobby of mine. I did Dutch, English, French and German at school, and did Russian, Latin, Romanian, Polish by myself. Also started on Spanish and Italian at one point, but never pulled through; my Spanish language course was too old and I didn't feel like Italian anymore after my holiday plans there got cancelled. Oh, and Bulgarian, from the time I had a Bulgarian sweetheart.

Speaking of Bulgarian, I've just found the Bulgarian comic masterpiece by Aleko Konstantinov on Google Books:
Bai Ganyo. Very happy about that since I only had the first four stories and couldn't find the rest.

It's a fun book. Have you played the game, too? I do have an installer for it.

I started the game, don't remember why I didn't finish it. Think I'll go back to it after I finish the book.

Finished another Hesse, with the gorgeous title Knulp, and just started on Het Groenenstein Syndroom by Hans Koekoek, a non-fiction about a former boarding school in The Hague with a horrifying regime.
