Let's talk books

 I am going to my sister for a few days so i wanted to have a good book to read on the plane. I have exams but i didn't want to read "Physical Chemistry of the Atmosphere" in the plane, so i searched if there is any book to buy or to download to my iPad. I don't like to read from iPad i prefer to have a book on my hands but anyway.

       

 The first book is the "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer. The film ,with the same title, is the adaptation of this book. It's the story of Christopher McCandless who was a hiker and in 1992 wanted to live in the Alaskan wilderness and to have a simple life. After four months he found dead in a bus that he lived in. Jon Krakauer wrote an article on the Outside Magazine about Alexander's Supertramp story (it was Christopher's pseudo name).

 The second book is the "Reheated Cabbage" by Irvine Welsh. I have already read the "Crime" and the "If you liked school you'll love work" books by him and i like him very much as a writer. They are the types of book that i like because they have very unique and weird characters and an underground dark comedic side. So this book is a collection of short stories for example the "Catholic Guilt" and the "I am Miami". In a lot of his books he is dealing with the matter of religion but not in a direct way. (P.S I haven't read or seen the Trainspotting)
  Another book that i would like to read is  "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka. The story is about a travelling salesman who transforms into a giant insect. The novella deals with character's attempt to adjust to his new condition and how his family and people around him treat him. The only "con" is that Kafka does not give an explanation of this transformation but he leaves it to our imagination so it's a pro then (ha).
  Lastly " The Brooklyn Follies" by Paul Auster. A lonely man returns to Brooklyn after his wife left him and reunites with his nephew, who waits for his life to change. In a series of events they come closer and they search for some kind of redemption.
