Books exchange/Intercambio de libros
Hi!! I'd like to read GOOD books in English, but I find it pretty difficult to buy them (don't know where to find cheap ones), and besides, I never know which ones are worth it. So here is my deal (to anyone who like it):
I propose an exchange of ENGLISH-SPANISH books to anyone interested in reading in Spanish: I'd send a GOOD Spanish book to that person and he/she will send me back a GOOD English one.
(Cheap ones, with paper cover, to make the sending cheaper).
ANYONE INTERESTED??? Greetings! ireneg7

Re:Re:Recommended reading
Hi Erica -
Thanks for the suggestion - have read Shadow of the Wind and enjoyed it! (I think I read too much Lol)
A few more suggestions -
The Other Hand - Chris Cleave (about a Nigerian Refugee in London)- just finished reading this over the weekend!
The Namesake - Jhuniper Lahiri
The Colour of Water - James McBride (have yet to read this one but it always makes the best-seller list)
Take care
Michelle

Re:Recommended reading
Hi Michelle,
I will read books that you have suggest. Thank you for your suggestion!
I have one book to recommend: "L'ombra del vento"...this is a Italian title but in English it could be: "The Shadow of the Wind" wrote by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. This is not very much about travel...but it's very exciting! Maybe you could be interests. Bye!

Recommended reading
Hi All,
Saw this msg board and thought I would recommend some good books for you to enjoy:
1) Shantaram - Gregory David Roberts (abt an escapee from an Australian Jail who finds himself in India)
2) The Scillian - Mario Puzo - the novel sequel to the "Godfather" and dare I say a better book!
3) The 5 people you meet in heaven - Mitch Albom - small book but has a big impact!
4) The Book Thief - Marcus Zuzack - set in Germany during WW2.
If anyone has suggestions of worthy reads (esp. those set in foreign countries/travel narratives) would love to hear from you!!
Hasta Luego!
Michelle

Re:Re:Come together!
Re:Come together!
hello,
I look for people all over the world to translate the following poem in their native speaking language. It is a poem from Rabindranath Tagore (Thukhur). Here it is:
"Listen my heart
to the wispering of the world,
with which it courts for your love.
Open your doors and
recognize the melody
of luck and joy,
the one which swings in all things."
Hi Johanna!
Here's the translation is portuguese:
'Ouve o meu coração,
para o susurrar do mundo,
com o qual pede o teu amor.
Abre as tuas portas e
reconhe a melodia
de sorte e amor,
aquele que balança em todas as coisas'
Catarina
