WINNER WINNER WINNER

Frybabe's the winner. DEATH WITH INTERRUPTIONS by Jose Saramago

It does sound like it will be interesting. I have it on my table waiting to be read with another group. Sad, about your dad, Frybabe. I know I'd not want to live forever at the age I am now -- I think I'd pick 40 or 45 years of age-- felt good, had learned a few things and would like to continue reading, learning, traveling and meeting new people.

Good for you, Frybabe. I got the Death With, but hadn't heard of the book, couldn't guess the last word.

This author has written an amazing number of books: series, stand alones, children's, and academic.
