theatokos10 books I don't think anyone on my friends list has.
This is tough because I have such a literate and diverse group on my friend's list. I'm trying to represent the different sections of my "library" but this is hard.
1. The Adventures of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie by May Gibbs. Great Australian children's book given to me when I was born, with fun pictures.
2. Essays of Revolt by Jack London. The particular copy I have is from my father, a 1926 edition.
3. Against Culture: Development, Politics and Religion in Indian Alaska by Kirk Dombrowski. I have not read this one yet.
4. The Old Testament Pseudepigraphia Vol. 1. Multiple Books of Enoch anyone?
5.Mythistory by Joseph Mali. Historical methodology.
6. The Idea of Wilderness by Max Oelshlaeger. Exactly what the title suggests. I really liked this.
7. Empress and Handmaid: Nature and Gender in the Cult of the Virgin Mary by Sarah Boss, who is my advisor.
8. The Serpent and the Goddess: Women, Religion and Power in Celtic Ireland by Mary Condren. Haven't read the whole thing yet.
9. Encountering the Mystery; Understanding Orthodox Christianity Today by His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew. Not as good as I was expecting. Very dry. Not recommended unless you're hard core - and if you are, you probably know most of this stuff already.
10. And for a novel.... Gould's Book of Fish by Richard Flannagan. I recommend getting your hands on the hard copy - the ink changes color to reflect what's happening in the story and the pictures are water color plates. And it's a really good book.
