trbc08 Wrote:Is Homage to Catalonia about the Spanish Anarchists? If so, I'd be interested to check it out. That's a period in history I find very interesting.
It's George Orwell's personal account of his time as a militiaman on the anarchist side in the Spanish Civil War.
This is a historic era that I know very little about and that's why I'm reading this. Thought it might be decent entry level reading - I'm also picking through some Marx at the minute and so this seemed to be interesting from a 'class struggle' point of view as well'
- and it's not fiction - it's just not science which is what I should have said in an earlier post

As many manuals and help books on The G.E.C.K. as i can find
I just went to the college library and picked up some books:
non-fiction
Turbulent Mirror: An Illustrated Guide to Chaos Theory and the Science of Wholeness
Chaos theory: about the theory of non-linear dynamical systems
Man on the edge of sense and being: the anthropology of Paul Tillich in a dialog with human science
fiction:
Joyce's The annotated Ulysses (with lots of cool maps of Dublin etc.)
Borges' A Universal History of Iniquity
I actually don't really know if I'll be able to manage reading all of those before the expiration of the term...
