Poll: OCUK Book Club - First book choice!

[Majago]

I've been recommended any book by the Japanese author Haruki Murakami. Anyone know a good book of his to add to the list?

The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.

Read it a while ago and thought it was quite good.

Looks like it is Catch 22 that is going to be the first book for OCUK book club!

Want me to wait till Monday to start the thread for it, so people have the weekend to go buy it if they do not already have it, or visit the library?

I'm sure you could find yourself a copy - it's not like it is a rare or unknown book!

I am leaving making the thread on it till Monday - to give people the chance to acquire it first.

Ordered, will probably be here by wednesday. Looking forward to reading this, was always on my "to read" but never got around to it. Must finish off my current Phillip K Dick book first though.

Yeah looks like it

 

[titchard]

Not a fan Gilly?

Although I guess that is a good thing, you can bring another viewpoint to the table.

We Can Remember it for you Wholesale

A collection of short stories, book five in fact of the collected short stories, some very interesting ideas in it. Has the story upon which Total Recall was based. The Pre-Persons story I think was the most intriguing one that springs to mind immediately.

Picked up my copy today in town for £5 - not bad!

Looking forward to this read - will create the thread for it tonight after i've finished this dissertation work.
