Oh, I read this very recently. It's brilliant. How are you liking it so far? One of the three best books I've read this year. -- Loving it. Wish I had more reading time in my life. Working sucks!

I've given up on Tom Wolfe, I just don't like it.
Going to start reading my favourite genre, travel writing. Steinbeck's travels with Charlie. I want to find Steinbeck's Russian Journal, but I've been unsuccessful so far (without resorting to amazon)

If you're talking about The Bonfire of the Vanities, SD then I didn 't like it either - also gave up on it pretty quickly.
