 Re: Yoshue
Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 or Persuasion. Probably Persuasion. I haven't been asked that in a while.

 Re: Yoshue
lol, not me! yoshue!
My favorite book is probably A Confederacy of Dunces, The Maltese Falcon, or The Plot Against America.
Non-fiction wise, The Ecology of Commerce changed my life

I think Persuasion is Jane Austen's best work.

I read that Borges learned Italian by reading a bilingual Spanish-Italian edition of the Commedia. He'd read a stanza in Spanish, then in Italian, and so on. I did that with my English-Italian translation two summers ago.
