About me I love books--that's why we're here, non?

She entered the story knowing she would emerge from it feeling she had been immersed in the lives of others, in plots that stretched back twenty years, her body full of sentences and moments, as if awakening from sleep with a heaviness caused by unremembered dreams.
- Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient

About my library "Growing.."

I once had a conversation with a friend that if we had another life, how we wish we could be like the 90s TVO series "BookMice": live in the library, come out at night, and talk about the books that happen to be our home.

I'm hoping this will do in the meantime ..

Salerie,
I have two invitations to start a thread on the Prizes group for the Giller Prize, which I have done. I don't know if I am responding to messages from my profile properly. I am hoping that this reaches you. I hope also that others are reading the thread bout the giller books. There are some truly great authors amongst them over the past years. It's worth checking out some of the previous years winners.

Thanks for your thoughts Salerie. A friend of mine challenged me to write 5 book reviews a week (though we have both fallen far behind) so there will be many more reviews on the way. Thanks again for your comments.
Happy reading.

Although I have had this book for a number of years, I have not yet read it, so cannot reply in detail. However, I see there are a couple of reviews of it on www.amazon.co.uk you might want to check out.

If you still want to read about the life of geisha find Liza Dalby's beautiful book, "Geisha." Dalby is the only American ever to become a geisha. This large-format book is very well-written and illustrated and its 336 pages include a glossary. *** You can go to Liza Dalby's web-page now, and find beautiful things!! GO! Esta 1923
