Author Comments:
Read in 2008. I've read all of these in french language, but I wrote the titles in engligh for a better understanding.
I hope I didn't forget anything.
(lit.) means literally.
[] are read in english language.
*re-read.
Favorite new readings 2008:
Documentary: Earth from Above: 366 Days, Yann Arthus-Bertrand
Novel: Curtain, Agatha Christie
Short story: The Invisible Collection, Stefan Zweig
Poem or Poetic Work: Selected Poems, Percy Bysshe Shelley
Play: A Midsummer Night's Dream, William Shakespeare
Comic or Graphic novel: Watchmen, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons
Album: Cyrano, Taï-Marc Le Thanh and Rébecca Dautremer








50 books and its not even febuary! how do you do it nance?!
Lord Byron reading are poetry (I have read Darkness more than once to see different french translations) and Truman Capote reading are short stories. Earth from Above is 800 pages, but the half is pictures. I have read some novels in 1-3 days, the short ones, I'm not a machine. In febuary, it will probably be high again, because I have borrowed collections of short stories by Lovecraft, Carver and Gogol.
its still a great reading record :)
My favourite HP Lovecraft tales, which I can recommend, are:
The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward
The Lurker At The Threshold (Billington's Wood/The Manuscript of Stephen Bates)
Try this
HPL quoted as an influence William Hope Hodgson, who I found to be even better than HPL.
I can recommend WHHs:
The House On The Borderland
The Night Land
I will try to found the french versions and put them on my to-read list:
//Lovecraft//
The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward (L'affaire Charles Dexter Ward)
The Lurker At The Threshold (I have difficulty to found the french translation... I will take another look on the web later)
//Hodgson//
The House On The Borderland (La maison au bord du monde)
The Night Land (Le pays de la nuit)
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son..."
It must be done [].
I don't understand a lot about the Jabberwocky, but I know it's about SOMEBODY that killed SOMETHING...
