oooooo a hard decision - which one to read first??
1. Out of Place by Edward Said (I had no idea he wrote a memoir!)
2. Hand on My Heart by Maureen Mayhew (intro grabbed me but so has Said's preface!)
3. Masnavi vol 5 - a must finish by end of Aug.

Ok. maybe bits of each... ;-)

Currently reading: By the River Piedra I Sat Down & Wept by Paulo Coelho (one of my fave authors!). Instantly grabbed by his "For I.C. and S.B., whose loving communication made me see the feminine face of God" and totally captured by the Author's Note (yes! I read EVERYTHING)
