What books are you into?

[JHyde]

That's a great book. Steinbeck is probably a good choice, because so much of his language is simple, but the message is conveyed through nuance rather than words of four syllables.

You should read Beckett too, Beatriz, for the same reason. I still try and read Beckett in French (which he wrote many of his works in originally) to keep mine up.

To keep it on topic: I love reading Beckett, both fiction and plays, and I'm very excited that I'm seeing Happy Days in a month or two in Sydney. They're expensive to stage, so it doesn't happen very often.
