What are you reading?

thought for sure this was going to be a certain mustacioed-author's tome.  8-)  :wink:

I'm waiting for the official season to start to crack that one!
After Keith's, Darryl's new book should be out.
That shit's gonna be SCANDALOUS!

[Blaise]

Just had this sent to me from an old friend. Seems pretty good so far...

sorta have to agree with the title with no knowledge of what the book is about. Sorta sums up my meager existence.

I'm reading Jailbird by Vonnegut right now.

Vonnegut is one of the best.  Great story, although sad with the post-war trauma issue.

a great one. have you read The Sirens of Titan? might be my favorite of his.

i just finished The Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T. E. Lawrence (i.e. Lawrence of Arabia). one hell of a book. very long and dense. took awhile to get through, but worth it.

over vacation i read "Portnoy's Complaint", by Philip Roth. 

brilliant and hilarious - and a must-read for any tribemember especially...

ya, I have read sirens, although quite a while ago. I think breakfast of champions is my favorite and kilgore trout is a minor character in jailbird so thats why I decided to read it but I admittedly haven't gotten past the preface yet.

here's an update on that phish book that was supposed to be coming out, from jambands.com:

Phish: The (Delayed) Biography

As we previously reported, Da Capo Press will publish Parke Puterbaugh's official biography of Phish. Originally set for a May 25 release, the book has now been pushed to November 23 (presumably to incorporate details of the band's reunion). Phish: The Biography, which evolved out of the author's 1995 interview with the group for Rolling Stone, is "the product of a decade of interviews with all band members, tracing their evolution from prep school to enormous success in the mid-'90s and beyond. Puterbaugh provides unique insight into their music and complicated interpersonal dynamics; examines their controversial later years; and reveals the real role drugs played in their breakup."
