I am reading a swedish childhood book I read as teenager called berts betraktelser, it is about his life like a diary book, you read what is happening day to day, with the dates as a heading, he is talking about friends, school and hobbys and other things, it is fun

I think the author is called Paul breen or something. It's a bit of a cult book so can be difficult to get hold off. If you have no luck let me know and I could post my one to you when I've finished

"The Penelopiad."

You might want to give Ovid's Heroides a go.

For me: my current commuting book is Suasan Sontag "Against Interpretation". A collection of essays on art and literature criticism.

At home it's David Bently Hart's translation of the New Testament. I've never read the whole thing before, and the idea of a 'pitilessly literal' translation was intriguing.

I also have Ptolemy's Almagest making very slow progress in the background. And even slower progress on Gibbon's Decline and Fall. I don't know why I do these things.

"Critique to pure reason by Emmanual Kant. ( any philosophy boffs on that could help me understand this work more ). Baffling "

I read that a few years ago. And when I say "read", I looked at all of the words. Understanding it is another matter entirely.

There's a book on Kant in the Very Short Introductions series. If I had any sense at all I would have read that one first.

It's been some time, so even the bits that I did understand are largely forgotten. It seemed to me that he was building far too much on what are, to a 20th century reader, very weak foundations.

Oh, and if you haven't read Hume yet, that would be good too. Essay concerning human reasoning, or something like that. The critique is largely Kant saying "nah, David, you're wrong". I agree far more with Hume, which is part of what made Kant so hard.
