"My all time favorite author is Homer. I have a half-dozen translations of the Odyssey and Iliad and one in Greek which I gave away (I was made to study the poems in Homeric Greek for two years while in high school). I am also a very big fan of Murasaki Shikibu's Tale of Genji--much more difficult than the Greek poems but an astounding, evocative tale, often credited as being the world's first novel."

"Right now I'm reading The Secret Land of Z but haven't read it enough to recommend it."
