Finally! I can finally check this book off.

I am going to go with Don Quixote for fiction and follow it up with Dracula and Robinson Crusoe.
For my architecture read its a toss up still between The Death and Life of Great American Cities and The City in History so I will mull that one ... Also supporting Don Quixote and Robinson Crusoe; and from the architecture pile The First House; Myth, Paradigm, and the Task of Architecture sounds very interesting - a nudgoid for that one, since I haven't read it.

For architecture, I will nudge The City in History, which I have not read completely, but which I enjoyed. The Ten Books on Architecture by Vitruvius, a classic, should be very ... ... and mixes fact and fiction.

On this theme, I'd totally advise anyone to read Foe by J.M. Coetzee. It takes Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe as a starting point, but you do NOT need to have read Crusoe to get Coetzee. It's a weird, amazing, utterly disconcerting and dystopian read.

The Last of the Mohicans (long time ago)
Dead Soul ... ...just counted again and saw that I only had 11. So I probably would be able to take Robinson Crusoe after all. But I'm tempted to make my last choice something absurdly camp for a desert island. I won't commit myself yet, but I think it would have to be Firbank, E.F. Benson, or Barbara Pym. Or ... Here are a few books my brother liked when he was about 7:

Birdsong,
Frankenstein,
Catch-22,
Robinson Crusoe,
The handmaid's tale,
The woman in white,
One hundred years of solitude &
Disgrace Beowulf. Gilgamesh.
Robinson Crusoe - how can a whole (really long) paragraph be just one sentence? And why? I just finished Robinson Crusoe for my English classics category. Though it was written in the early 18th century I hardly had any trouble to get accustomed to the language used. While I enjoyed most of it, I did not particularly like the religious parts and the ending. The ending I felt was ... ... Ian McEwan. Plus found two more books I read but had not checked off, Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift and Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe. Brings my total to 55. I should have left Robinson Crusoe well enough alone. My childhood library included an abridged version. It was one of my favorites, and I read it several times. When I read the unabridged version as an adult, I found the religious material to be slow going.
The Sinking of the Titanic and Great Sea Disasters
Watership Down
The Perfect Storm
Robinson Crusoe
The Old Man and the Sea
Kon-Tiki
Any of those catch your interest?
My wife and I did a cruise (Alaska) last summer. We brought (from home) too many books. Just bring one ... This is a good thread. I didn't like The Yacoubian Building, although I did finish reading it. I abandoned Robinson Crusoe when I was about 12; my mother thought I should read it, and had me reading it out loud to her---we both eventually agreed it wasn't worth finishing. Last year I gave ... Only book I've abandoned so far this year was Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe. Beyond boring, and with what I found to be a rather offensive "moral" being forced on the reader. ...

CR: Robinson Crusoe, The Silver Ship and the Sea
Finally gave up on Robinson Crusoe (which I found absolutely dreadful - it was so bad, it made me not want to read!!!), and as a result am making real progress in Vladimir Nabokov's Ada, which is far better - entertaining in the extreme :D ... in high school, it's probably deserving of a re-read.
I'm still on Vladimir Nabokov's Ada and Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. I've been doing so much reading for my comps this last week, I haven't actually picked up either of these all week, though. *sigh* I just read Foe, by J. M. Coetzee, which is a retelling of Robinson Crusoe from a very different (female) perspective. Although I didn't much care for Robinson Crusoe, I did quite enjoy Foe.

Almost to the halfway point! Tonight I finished Robinson Crusoe. I skimmed the last 1/3. So far this was one of the most challenging on the list for me. I couldn't get into the story. #13: You might want to avoid Foe as well, since it is a retelling of Robinson Crusoe.
Also, I didn't particularly like it anyway.
-- M1001 Wow, Kplatypus...that is a lot to get through in 3 weeks!
I'm reading Robinson Crusoe. I hope to finish it by next week. The second half has a little more action than the first half. ... also picked up Tender is the Night, Tristram Shandy, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, The Virgin Suicides, Robinson Crusoe, and Hard Times at the library today. I'm planning/hoping to get through all of them within the month, since they're due Nov 23rd. I finished Marie Antionette, and am now halfway through Robinson Crusoe. I wish I had kept track of time in the beginning. There have been multiple instances where he'll say "and then 5 years passed where nothing happened" or "that took me 2 years" I think he must be middle aged by now. I guess ...

Fritz Leiber is often thought of as a science fiction writer, or the creator of the incredible sword & sorcery characters Fafhrd & Gray Mouser but to me, he'll always be one of the very finest practitioners of the weird tale.
