'Tis
by Frank McCourt 
'Tis
is a compelling memoir of an immigrant's life in midcentury America. The sequel to Frank
McCourt's memoir of his Irish Catholic boyhood, Angela's
Ashes, picks up the story in October 1949, upon his arrival in America. What makes
McCourt a great storyteller is his ability to give his pages just the right amount of
humor and perspective.
- Richard Brautigan
- Trout
Fishing in America, The Pill Versus the Springhill Mind Desaster and In Watermelon Sugar
(3 books in 1)
- Brautigan speaks great truths through metaphor and symbolism. As Captain Beefheart or Tom Waits are to popular music, so is Brautigan to literature. He is a sort of Hemingway with a playful sense of humor. By the by... the novel Trout Fishing in America has almost nothing to do with fishing.
Mystery & Thrillers
Personal
Injuries by Scott TUROW 
The story is fast paced and thought provoking. Turow has a wonderful ear
for dialogue. He uses the word "hinky" twice in the book. Now that's a real
Chicago word.
All of Scott Turow's novels have been major international bestsellers. A former
assistant U.S. attorney in Chicago, where he is a pertner in the law firm of Sonnenschein,
Nath, and Rosenthal, he is currently teaching fiction writing at Northwestern University.
- Two Much by Donald E. Westlake
Like P. G. Wodehouse, a writer whom he resembles rather more than slightly, Mr. Westlake is at
his best in his series books: the Parker novels (written under the tongue-in-cheek pen
name Richard Stark), which feature a tungsten-hard professional burglar
who specializes in infallible plans; and the Dortmunder novels, in which the premise of
the Parker novels is ingeniously transplanted to a parallel universe where the
not-so-tough guys are forever tripping over their own feet, and the hero's infallible
plans, in a word, aren't. But Mr. Westlake's one-shot comic mysteries, like Wodehouse's
non-series farces, are also very much worth reading." (New York Times)

Tangerine Dream - Mars Polaris
- Tangerine
Dream - Zeit
Thanks to the big-selling soundtracks for in-planetarium dozing which they recorded for Virgin in the mid-'70s (Ricochet, Stratosfear etc), Tangerine Dream are hardly credited as Krautrock pioneers in the same league as Can or Faust. If you are a fan of such works as Brian Eno's Descreet Music or Music for Films, Zeit will fit nicely between those two in your CD changer.
Hits
TRAVIS -
Good Feeling
"In a world which deems it impossible to be all things to all people, Good Feeling manages to make you laugh, sing, cry, dance, hurt, and, yeah, rock..." (Melody Maker, 9/13/97)
TRAVIS
- The Man Who 
"There is no design for life / There's no devil's haircut in my mind / There is not a wonderwall to climb or step around."
A wonderful CD. It goes from happy up-tempo songs to slow ballads. Travis have developed from the Britpop also-rans of their debut, Good Feeling, into gifted pop craftsmen inhabiting a more suitably tired, lonely, lovelorn niche.
- James Taylor
- Greatest Hits
Everybody knows Taylor's "You'Ve Got a Friend". Here, still more beautiful hits like "Carolina in My Mind" (in a newly recorded version) and "Steamroller", which let us repute James Taylor as one of the best minstrels of the pop age. Temptations -Anthology : The Best
of Temptations (2 discs) 
The Motown Sound at the edge of its glory. - Trainspotting
- Soundtrack The...TRAINSPOTTING album is like one long, druggy crawl through the U.K.
underground, taking in subterranean techno, dance music and the pop daydreams of bands
like Pulp and Blur. It's SATURDAY NIGHT
FEVER for the XTS generation... Including Lou Reed's "Perfect
Day" and Iggy Pop's "Nightclubbing".
