Soccer in Sun and Shadow
Soccer in Sun and Shadow

ookins43, June 19, 2010

With the World Cup competition happening now, it's time to read up on some Cup history. There's a good dash of politics thrown in as well. This is a fascinating collection of short essays that any soccer fan will enjoy.

Packed with the type of humor only Tom Robbins can get away with-I laughed out loud.

Cuisines of the Axis of Evil and Other Irritating States: A Dinner Party Approach to International Relations by C Christine Fair
Cuisines of the Axis of Evil and Other Irritating States: A Dinner Party Approach to International Relations

ookins43, January 24, 2009

This is that rare book written with great intelligence but buffered by humor and wit. The recipes are clearly written and offer substitutes for uncommon ingredients.

Arkansas (McSweeney's Rectangulars) by John Brandon
Arkansas (McSweeney's Rectangulars)

ookins43, February 8, 2008

Brandon has created characters that the reader wants to know more about. It's an entirely believable novel with a great cover.
