Re:Interested in Spanish/Catalan literature
Hi!
If you like, I can give you a little help about Spanish/Catalan literature. I'm from Barcelona. Have you got any particular questions? I could answer you either in French or in English.
Bye!
Rubèn.

Re:Poolman
Hi,
I'm Peruvian and I have read the famous Pullman trilogy "His dark Materials". Pullman is a clever atheistic writer and you'll find in these books the kind of arguments - masterfully disguised inside the plot - usually found in discussions between believers and non-believers. Moroever, Pullman seems to have a strong scientific basis because he writes about superstring theory, evolution and other issues normally not so known.
Even when this trilogy is written for teens (as far as I know), I recommend its lecture.
Saludos desde el Peru! (greetings from Peru)

Re:Hay algunos libros buenos? Any good books someone wants to recommend?
Hi Alexandra,
This winter I read The Kite Runner and last week I finished The Attack by Yasmina Khadra. They are both excellent, though riveting would be a better description. Trata de conseguir un CD de Ruben Blades. Es talvez el mejor exponente de la musica latina. Es muy profundo.
Suerte,
Ibrahim

Re:what's the English for IL CODICE DA VINCI?
hello Allison. Thanks for answering to me.I read il codice da vinci and I think it is an interesting book for many reasons; it catches your attention from the very beginning, the plot is intriguing and what is said about Christian religion makes you think a lot. Don't you agree?

Romans themselves wrote quite a lot about
their own history. Tacitus is one of the
names coming to my mind. I do not know if
they discuss the topic from viewpoints
you need, but at least they were in the
middle of the happening events.

recommended English book
I'd like to share a good book I think is worth reading if you're learning or wanting to improve your English. The book is "How To Read a Book" by Mortimer J. Adler. It's basically about what the title says! It is challenging but a good standard to see how you can think and read in the English language, maybe not for beginners. Hope this helps someone.

Re:Connecting people
Hello Marta
I ws interested to read your message because I studied Philosophy at university in New Zealand when I used to live there.
Now I´m living in Spain, near Murcia, and trying very hard to learn Spanish. I can read and understand more than I can speak, and I just want to learn as much as possible.
Maybe I could help you with your English (which seems to be really good, judging by your message!) and you could help me with my Spanish?
