Starting something you couldn't finishFinnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

I've heard so much about "Gravity's Rainbow"that I'm very tempted to give it a go. Just to see what the fuss is about. Also "Atlas Shrugged".

Gravity's Rainbowis my nemesis. It really is superbly written, but the plot keeps switching, and the characters keep changing, and Pynchon's prose is dense, and you daren't skip over a paragraph otherwise you find yourself throwing the book at the wall and screaming "WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK IS GOING ON NOW?" and that's not an ideal thing to do when you have a sleeping six-month-old on your shoulder.
Atlas Shrugged was written by a woman who would have been sucking Reagan's cock had she had the opportunity. That tells you all you need to know.
