我回来了

大家的安宁日子没了!

此次回国,使命有三,(自己规定的):

1. 伺候老爸老妈
2. 买书
3. 买舞蹈教学片

三条都基本做到,是否合人意就另说了。大家知道国情,在国内名著好买,畅销书廖廖。所谓名著,苦涩难读,我们也只好苦中取乐。

海淀区中国书城一逛,“大海捞针,书海拾贝” 的硕果粗粗排列如下。

1. The age of wonders = 奇迹年代by Aron Appelfeld
2. Remains of the Day = 长日留痕
3. Bell Jar = 钟形罩
4. Kitchen = 厨房
5. The Reader = 朗读
6. A Bend in the River = 河湾
7. The Master and Margate = 大师和玛格丽特
8. East of Eden = 伊甸之东
9. Three Cups of Tea = 三杯茶
10. Trail = 审判
11. Castle = 城堡
12. The Great Gatsby = 了不起的盖茨比
13. Tender Is the Night = 夜色温柔
14. The House on the Mongo Street = 芒果街上的小屋
15. Elegy for Iris = 当贝利遇到艾丽丝
17. My Name is Red = 我的名字叫红
18. A Hundred Years of Solitude = 百年孤独


• Gadfly = 牛虻
• Ulysses = 尤里斯丝

WOW, here are our books to read for next three or five years.

I've also noticed two out of the three goals for Xioying were to find things for the Dance and Book Club.

And we say THANK YOU, with big smiles!

Maybe they are books for our life time :-)

I will bring most of the books bought in China to the next week meeting.

Could each of us pick one of them and read for the fall?

That is a good idea, I'll go for it.

Thanks xihu for all the wonderful books and brillant ideas.

With you, the rest of our life would be quite different!
