Quote of the Day

I suggest that the only books that influence us are those for which we are ready, and which have gone a little farther down our particular path than we have yet got ourselves. --E.M. Forster
What books have influenced you?
One of mine: The Road Less Traveled, M.Scott Peck.

in recent months, the book that had a strong impact on me is "l'enfant bleu" by Henry Bauchau. There is unfortunately no English translation as yet. story of the growing up of a borderline schizophrenic boy/adolescent/young adult and his relationship to his therapist/teacher/mother... amazingly beautiful and harsh... simply loved every single word of it!!
