    Just wondering if anyone has read anything of his other than The Alchemist?

    Or to put it another way has anyone read any of the following:
    Eleven Minutes, The Fifth Mountain, The Pilgrimage, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept, The Devil and Miss Prym, The Valkyries and Veronika Decides to Die

    Thanks

    Yes: Eleven Minutes, The Fifth Mountain, The Valkyries and Veronika Decides to Die.

    Some of them are in your house ;)

    And The Alchemist obviously, and The Manual of the Warrior of Light (weird).

    I've only read The Alchemist and Eleven Minutes... Loved the Alchemist, Eleven minutes was good, but.. meh.. if you're gonna write soft pr0n, don't pretend otherwise. Also, as a woman, I couldn't help but laugh at a few of his descriptions, they seemed a little inaccurate. But I *think* he writes in his native tongue, and so the english translation might be a little distorted I guess...

    Yes he does.

    I've only read Veronika decides to die, and it blew me away. Brilliant book with a great twist. Definitely worth reading for its own merits, but especially if you're of a melancholic nature. It's (he's) sympathetic in a logical kind of way.
