TamTam Books News Friday, January 06, 2006: TamTam Books’ Favorite BooksThe following are things that I read in 2005 – and you must keep in mind this doesn’t mean it was written or published in 2005. Just stuff that impressed me in 2005 for various reasons – why, they may not be even good books. Nevertheless I never stop at just ‘good taste.’ Also the order down below are random. I don’t believe one can list books or records by a number with respect if they are greater than the other. That’s rubbish and boring.Now saying that here are the books:1) Dancing with DeBeauvoir by Colin Nettlebeck2) The Lamberts by Andrew Motion3) Manual of Saint-Germain-des-Prés by Boris Vian4) Mike Mac’s White and Blacks by Michael McCartney5) Mulliner Nights by P.G. Wodehouse6) After the War by Simone DeBeauvoir7) Japan Journals by Donald Richie8) Love on the Left Bank by Ed van der Elsken9) 30 Years in Vogue by John Rawlings10) Elvis: The Last 24 Hours by Albert Goldman11) Guy Debord by Andy Merrifield12) Elizabeth Peyton by Elizabeth Peyton13) Semina Culture by Kristine McKenna and Michael Duncan14) The Dead All Have the Same Skin by Boris Vian15) A Dysfunctional Success by Eric Goulden (Wreckless Eric)16) Ball the Wall by Nic Cohn Tosh // 7:51 PM ______________________ Comments: Post a Comment
