Talking
with friends recently, my blog about Desert
Island CDs came up and I was asked why I didn't take a
turn at books. Why not?
Rules
of the game? No multiple volumes. No silly uses of Kindle
or other electronic medium to circumvent the game. Just a
simple list of the five books you'd like to have on a desert
island with you.
Obviously,
everyone will approach this with different thinking. Some
may be searching for inspiration, others escape, still others
comfort. Here are my thoughts in no particular order:
Honorable
mentions include:
Of course,
the rules of the game don't allow me to bring one of my all
time favorites, The
Lord of the Rings. I also haven't brought any history
books or how-to-survive-on-a-desert-island books either. Perhaps
I'll rethink the list soon.
Any thoughts
of your own? Feel free to email me!
Note:
Book Faded Brown is a song from a later incarnation of the
Band featuring Levon Helm, Rick Danko, and Garth Hudson. It
can be found on several CDS, but originally was released on
Jubilation.
Don't miss Levon Helm's newest
release either.
