Finally finished Hopeful Monsters, Nicholas Mosley, I liked it, liked the ideas used herein, liked the description of "nature worship" in Germany of the 20s/30s, people getting naked out in nature and this from that time period. I'd heard that that had happened, or heard that pre-Nazi Germany included a kind of "green" movement, that sort of thing, so it was curious to see it described in fiction, part of the story...as well as the time of the Spanish War...Civil War. Heh! There is this one scene a group of men charging into battle (of sorts)...one guy is wounded, right...and before long, one from his side shoots him dead. He
was moaning, wounded. Reminds me of this scene I liked in Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls. Spanish guy asks the white guy lead, American, "do you want me to shoot thee, Ingles? Quierres? It is nothing." Was the American's name...Parker? I forget.
Now it is on to
prufrock21 's Investigative Eye: The Case of the Maltese Pyramid, a novella, picked it up at Amazon a day or three ago for 3.99, kindle. I'd read a page or two into it after it downloaded, looks like a promising story. Good day for it, rain all day yesterday, today.
