    Absolutely! But it's mine. I would give anything to anyone, except the Nabokov stuff. ;) Penguin have this short collection out to celebrate their 70th birthday. There's some very good authors, and the books are priced at £1.50 each (although I have seen the entire set of seventy titles...

    Vladimir Nabokov

    I read this post and went off to Amazon in search of Laughter in the Dark. Ended up buying no less than eight Nabokov books and forgot that one. So, devestated. Noooo! Been meaning to catch up with this thread for ages and ages and ages... Have we read Pale Fire yet? I am very excited...

    Jeffrey Eugenides: Middlesex

    Oh? Well I'm confused now. So his name wasn't Chapter Eleven? I missed any bankruptcy elements whatsoever... huh? Oh well, a reread is necessary then. :)

    Rating Threads

    This is probably a completely pointless post since forums have different features, but...

    Lionel Shriver: We Need To Talk About Kevin

    I've not stopped thinking about the contents of this book since I read it at the beginning of the year (or maybe even late last year, I forget). It was slow starting, which spoiled it a bit, and I almost gave up, actually. If it wasn't for the recommendations from people on this forum and...
