We have:<\/p>\n
- \n
- A number of Perry Mason mysteries, including The Case of the Mischievous Doll<\/i>, The Case of the Fiery Fingers<\/i>, and The Case of the Horrified Heirs<\/i>.\n<\/li>\n
- Several of the Classics Club books I’ve taken to collecting. New books include History of Plymouth<\/i> by William Bradford; Selected Stories<\/i> by Anton Checkov; The Way of All Flesh<\/i> by Samuel Butler; and Seven Plays<\/i> by Henrik Ibsen. I already had Selected Works<\/i> by Cicero, but it was a different printing. This brings my collection to, what, 29 volumes in this set?\n<\/li>\n
- The Pathfinder<\/i> by James Fennimore Cooper; I have most of the Leatherstocking books now. Perhaps I should read them.\n<\/li>\n
- Hallowe’en Party<\/i> and The Mousetrap<\/i> (a play) by Agatha Christie.\n<\/li>\n
- A collection of poetry by someone I’d never heard of, James Kavanaugh.\n<\/li>\n
- A “chapbook” by local poet Pam Puleo. I knew Pam when I was doing the open mike circuit about 10 years ago. This “chapbook,” which looks more like a school project and includes some loose poems tucked into it, looks like a school project. When I read these to the boy, I might try to imitate Ms. Puleo’s voice and delivery.\n<\/li>\n
- A bunch of Camus, including The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays<\/i> and Caligula and Other Plays<\/i>.\n<\/li>\n
- The Realm of Numbers<\/i> by Isaac Asimov.\n<\/li>\n
- Star Trek: The Return<\/i> because I’m interested to see how Shatner got them to resurrect Kirk.\n<\/li>\n
- The Lost City of Zork<\/i> because I’m an old school geek.\n<\/li>\n
- Some philosophy books, including Basic Ethics<\/i>, Dilemmas<\/i>, Bertrand Russell’s The Problems of Philosophy<\/i>, and A Casebook on Existentialism<\/i>.\n<\/li>\n
- Open Net<\/i>, George Plimpton’s hockey book.\n<\/li>\n
- Friday<\/i> by Robert A. Heinlein.\n<\/li>\n
- A hardback copy of The Andromeda Strain<\/i> by Michael Crichton.\n<\/li>\n
- The Closing of the American Mind<\/i> by Allan Bloom. I am getting quite a collection from Bloom. Probably because I keep thinking he’s the guy who got a hand on Naomi Wolf’s thigh<\/a>.\n<\/li>\n
- The Prophet<\/i> by Kahlil Gibran.\n<\/li>\n
- A Death In China<\/i> by Carl Hiaassen and some other guy. The Carl Hiaassen is what’s important.\n<\/li>\n
- Night Thoughts of a Classical Physicist<\/i>, some musings of some science guy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- Several of the Classics Club books I’ve taken to collecting. New books include History of Plymouth<\/i> by William Bradford; Selected Stories<\/i> by Anton Checkov; The Way of All Flesh<\/i> by Samuel Butler; and Seven Plays<\/i> by Henrik Ibsen.
