>Read
'Talk to the Snail' - Stephen Clarke. A British expat's take on how to understand the French and their customs. Quite funny. I'd like to read a French person's take on the British. Does anyone have any recommendations?

>Reading
'The Satanic Verses' by Salman Rushdie. Finally got round to reading this. Really enjoying it. Only about a third of the way through and can't quite believe that it caused such controversy. I'm going to read more about the controversy after I've read the book so that I don't spoil anything.

>Going to Read
Perhaps 'The Flight of the Intellectuals' by Paul Berman which deals with the Rushdie affair and the rise of Islamism in general.
