Delightfully acidic - I always mentally characterize him as Wodehouse with rabies.<br /><br />And for something a little "out there," try Eiji Yoshikawa's <i>Musashi.</i> Often described as Japan's <i>Gone With the Wind,</i> it is probably the Great Japanese Novel. Toshiro Mufune starred in the film trilogy based on it, and those films are worth watching in their own right independently of the novel. I've seen the book available in the big chains, and Amazon of course has it as well.Steve Skubinnanoreply@blogger.com
