11.Aug.2008 Sunday Salon Week #10
I went to the first Borders book fair here. A lot of books were all $4 SGD each, so I couldn’t resist. It’s just humanly impossible to. Went home with the following books:
The History of Love by Nicole Krauss
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters
Goodbye Tsugumi by Banana Yoshimoto
The Cave of the Yellow Dog by Byambasuren Davaa and Lisa Reisch (This book is about Mongolian nomads. It comes with pretty colored pictures. Can’t believe I found this! It’s been on my wish list for a while.)
Thanks for all the vouches for Rebecca. It was a slow week for me though, so I haven’t gone further much. On the other hand, I’m 1 chapter to finishing Wuthering Heights. I want to watch one of the movies first (probably the 1992 one with Ralph Fiennes) before writing my review. Wuthering Heights was one heck of a journey :)
