New Books
Thursday, September 15th, 2005I picked up a few books this weekend that I’m pretty excited about
- Jacob’s Hands - Aldous Huxley
- Collected Short Stories - Aldous Huxley
- Revolution for the Hell of it - Abbie Hoffman
- The Atomic Scientists - A Biographical History
Jacob’s Hands was a very simple read. It was apparently meant to be a screenplay so the writing style seemed a lot different than other Huxley books I’ve read. It was a somewhat decent story though. The book is about a very simple man who discovers he has the gift of healing. It was an entertaining read but not too “mind blowing”.
Revolution for the Hell of it is going to be awesome. I read the first chapter and broke out laughing several times. It looks fantastic!
