Spain by Emma Howard published by Chartwell Books. Mostly awesome color photos of Spain, but also a brief history of Spain. Expensive book at list price, but I found it at a bookstore sidewalk sale for $10 and couldn't resist.

I'm reading Barack Obama's *The Audacity of Hope* and have also read his book *Dreams From My Father*. I can highly recommend them both and they were written before he became President : )

When I play guitar I usually don't read, but I have an injury! Just today I had to stop reading E.M. Cioran. His language is pretentious, albeit rather beautiful and his classical thinking is easy to follow (A=A). I could find nothing to agree with, but that did not stop me from reading, but then I found he devotes an entire chapter to anti-semitism which is nothing more than one long rant. His generalizations - not just against Jews as a people and religion, but other subjects - are cliche and dull. He finally defends Germany in the Holocaust. He promotes his own brand of skepticism, yet most, if not all of ideas are outdated and irrational. What a waste of space!

Excerpts of his writing:
"In more than one way, he [the Jew] is related to the serpent[...]"
cliche, right? His anti-semetic passion emanates throughout the chapter...

Just avoid Cioran! I recommend Aleister Crowley. Ironically, he too is an anti-semite, but his immense genius overshadows it in my opinion.

I'm going ot take a break and read fiction next, Sun of Suns by Karl Schroeder. Check it out!
