"Whereas the tourist generally hurries back home at the end of a few weeks or months, the traveler, belonging no more to one place than the next, moves slowly, over periods of years from one part of the earth to another." -Paul Bowles

It's news to me, but then I know absolutely nothing about Kafka. Should I read something? What would you recommend? Or is he someone who's beyond me?
well there's plenty to choose from on my shelves downstairs. maybe try the metamorphosis...or choose for yourself? i don't know about it being 'beyond you', but i'm not sure you'll like it, as you don't tend towards existentialist lit. give it a try though. have you gotten around to lolita yet, btw?
Nope, haven't read it as I kindof forgot about it. You don't have it in your collection as I recall, right? But, will pick up Metamorphosis and give it a try.
Nope, I believe it was gotten rid of when I cleaned out my books a couple of years back. Should be easy enough to find at the library though.
