I've picked a book from the library yesterday. It's an antology of Scandinavian short novels..

 

[Gaunerin]

sounds nice. novels about Scandinavia or from Scandinavian writers? Or even both!?

 

[Mocika]

just starting: Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson - Arne

@Gauni: both.. but they are mostly about the living in 19-20th century background.

 

[Gaunerin]

.......that's not necessarily a bad thing At a time a read a lot of history novels, mostly from the Dark Ages though.
At the moment I still haven't made a decision of what book to pick up next. Maybe my Swedish book

 

[Morgana]

Were they Swedish historical novels???

 

[Gaunerin]

hehehe.....surprisingly not. Everything I read that is related to Sweden was non-fiction.
No, wait, I read a crime novel by Mankell, does that count?
And I have a book with Swedish fairytales but I haven't read it so far. But being on a board for a Norwegian band I feel I should shut up for now

 

[Krilons Resa]

Anything by Nietzsche....

And as for novels...Hubert Selby Jr. !!!!!

 

[Mocika]

so.. what are we reading lately?

 

[Gaunerin]

nothing really. waiting for both, my Swedish course to begin and the arrival of that "Lords of Metal" book which - I'm repeating myself - I expect to be crap.

 

[Morgana]

reviews... check spelling etc...

 

[Mocika]

Gauni: when does your Swedish course start?

 

[Gaunerin]

tomorrow

 

[Mocika]

Gauni: what was the first lesson like?


I know some of u will read this for the third time.. but this book is almost 800 pages long... I would like to hear some recommendations about Helmut Krausser - Melodien oder Nachträge

EXACTLY ......but I still don't know it. I could write in here that I had heard the title before though

also....I was writing everywhere I ordered the "Lords of Metal" book.......now that it arrived I realised it's actually called "Lords of Chaos" Why did noone say a thing!?

As for the Swedish course: see Vintersorg forum, nicest thing thread and I can of course tell you a bit next time I catch you on ICQ
