Re: Fifty book challenge 2008

1. H. G. Wells - The Invisible Man
2. Arthur Machen - The Three Imposters
3. Tom Robbins - Even Cowgirls Get The Blues
4. Henry Miller - Tropic of Cancer
5. Henry Miller - Tropic Of Capricorn
6. Henry Miller - The Colossus Of Marossui


I was really taken by his ability with language, particulary in Tropic Of Capricorn. I don't think i've read anything quite like it, definetely worth more than a single glance.

Cracking, there's such a surreal, black humour to it.
