Hi , Are u asking for some good books to read ?
'First Person - Vladimir Putin'{2000 first edition , 2008 ? updated }
'The spy who came in from the cold' - by john le carre
The Cider House Rules by John Irving Sanditon by Jane Austen (the complete version by anonymous author) One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez If Tomorrow Comes by Sidney Sheldon The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn by Robin Maxwell Secret Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See Heart Matters by Adrienne Clarkson Funny in Farsi by Firoozeh Dumas Poets and Pahlevans: A Journey into the Heart of Iran by Marcello Di Cintio Life of Pi by Yann Martel
There is a very good series of paperbacks called "Everyman's Poetry", one book for each poet, which you can get through amazon.co.uk for not much more than the cost of postage. (Click on the "new and used" button).
England, like Persia, is famous above all for her poets.

How about poets in English?

Dear Don Cox, these are just great! I'll get them, you suggested some very good books last year as well, thank you! :)
I can't remember what I suggested last year. I hope it wasn't the same ones!
No, not the same, Orwell's works mostly.
My three favorites (titles):
- Motherless Brooklyn
- The time (in?) between
- The Ha-Ha
Simple novels, but I like them :)
