A fost detronat Ulise de James Joyce? ;)) Imposibil de citit cartea aia. Ma mira sa vad ca romanele de la 3 la 7 pe care le-ai si ingrosat (vrei sa le citesti sau le-ai citit?) sunt studiate in primul an de facultate, le engleza. 🙂 hihi, si de pe lista asta am citit multe, de pe cea pe care am gasit-o eu… pff, numai vreo 20 dar cred ca din 1001. 😀
Nu stiu daca e neaparat o lista-top. Ca mi se pare o cadere prea brusca de pe primul loc, pe 45.
Cele ingrosate sunt cele citite (pe toate listele de pe blog!)….si da, 3-7 le-am citit in facultate 🙂
Song of Deborah
…They chose new gods; then was war in the gates… Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song… the LORD made you have dominion over the mighty… Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of Justice against the mighty… Have they not divided the prey; to every man a damsel or two? So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. And the land rest forty years. Judges 5.
Deborah Palfrey deserves the Pemberton Award for Clean Governance.
Palfrey list is like the Black Book of 1918.
That Trial of the century is deleted from all books.
The list there had 47000 names.
The list here has 46000 phone bills.
The listed are not womenizers, machos or ordinary sinners.
They are power brokers, gay lutheran shock n awe blitzkrieg agitators of all wars and all panics.
These wretches are one dirty cover to the real pimps deep undercover.
A curse on the kingpins, Justice Charles Darling then and Judge Adolph Kramer Kessler now.
