The Sailor who Fell from Grace with the Sea by Yukio Mishima

It was part of the swap recommended to me by Libra. The format of the book reminds me of Cormac McCarthy's The Road. It will be probably fly by quick. Thanks Libra.

Thanks, I will be interested. She herself has an interesting history, and also an interesting take on religion. One day I'll get caught up on reading the works of hers that have been accumulating here.

I just arrived back from the library with a handful of free books. Most of them are text books whose subjects range from science, to world history, to math. I also picked-up these gems:
