What I've been reading

I have brought about a dozen books with me to Marmaris. Without any premeditation, I decided to do a small Jose Saramago fest: I have read first The Double, then Blindness (incidentally, I was thinking what a great movie it would make, when I found out, searching the Amazon link, that it has already been made- out in Turkey in a couple of weeks) and now I am off to History of the Siege of Lisbon.

I am not really into fictional reviews; in any case, I am waiting for the movie for Blindness for a joint review. But my good friend Emin, a loyal Besiktas fan when we play Fenerbahce, has a review on The Gospel According to Jesus Christ.

Among the other books I have with me are: What Makes a Terrorist, The Price of Everything, Economic Gangsters, Nudge, All the News That's Fit to Sell. I'll probably review at least some of those.

Due to the "sensitive" content of the post I had preferred to write in English. But whenever I do so I get lost in the swarm of litereature blogs in English.

It's always nice to know some have read even if they refrain from leaving comments. (Hint hint.)

You definitely have a point: It is not very fair to be expecting comments when I am not leaving some myself in the first place. But I am a really shy guy:) Anyway, as you know, I have also been too preoccupied with Besiktas these day. Hopefully, after Saturday, I'll have more time for blogtrotting- and commenting:):):)
