Sobre mimI like books. I will read most anything but I am always on the look out for a good fantasy novel. Suggestions are always appreciated.

I am one of those weird people who like watching a foreign movie with subtitles or reading a book in the original language (as long as the original language is English, Italian, French or Spanish). Part of the reason why I studied Italian was because one of my goals in life was to read Dante's "Divine Comedy" in the original. Which I did, at the age of 35.

I'm also one of those people who can't seem to read only one book at a time.

Favorite books:
"Pale Fire" by Vladamir Nabokov
"The Man Who Fell in Love With the Moon" by Tom Spanbauer
"Alias Grace" by Margaret Atwood
"The Crimson Petal and the White" by Michel Faber
"Fugitive Pieces" by Anne Michaels
"Invisible Cities" by Italo Calvino
"Hallucinating Foucault" by Patricia Duncker
"The Moviegoer" by Walter Percy
"Einstein's Dreams" by Alan Lightman
"Silk" by Alessandro Baricco
