I finished reading:

"Anil's Ghost" written by Michael Ondaatje.  307 pages.

A sad story of violence in the favourite country I have ever visited.  It's hard to believe such a beautiful country and happy, friendly people could be surrounded by such pain.

"The Memoirs of Richard Nixon" written by Richard Nixon.  1090 pages.

The forty-fourth book of the year.  18,443 pages at an average of 419 pages book.

A very interesting book.   Watergate is something I don't know anything about so without reading more I cannot make a judgement.  What is interesting is the fact that Nixon was considered a right wing Conservative yet in today's climate he would probably have to be a Conservative Democrat.   For example one of his policy goals was "affordable health insurance for everyone".  Sound familiar?
