A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

TYPHOON AND OTHER STORIES - Joseph Conrad
The stories are- Typoon, Amy Foster,Falk, Tomorrow and The Nigger of the 'Narcissus'.
These are short stories and novellas. It an uneven collection the two stand outs are Typhoon and The Nigger of the 'Narcissus'. Stories of the sea and of the human condition. And when I say uneven they are all very good but not even Conrad wise. Anything he wrote is of the highest quality.
