Tshern: Ahh, Heart of Darkness. I loved that book until I had to write a paper on it for a HumSci course. Hardest paper I've ever written, and as a philosophy major, that's saying something. I must've read the whole story ten times, and finally churned out a paper about how my attempt to analyze Heart of Darkness had itself become a maddening journey into the heart of darkness. Still, great book, even if I never want to see it again (at least until I've got my degree).
As for what I'm reading, besides a ton of comic books, Whitman's Leaves of Grass, Virgil's Aeneid, and Understanding Media by Marshall MacLuhan. All of this (except for the comic books) goes on hold in a week when school starts, though.
