The Books of My Numberless Dreams

The Books of My Numberless Dreams

http://imani.wordpress.com

Books are my life so this is my outlet. Here I share my obsession with fiction, literary journals and a bit of non-fiction. Things may be approached from a Jamaican-lost-in-Canada perspective. Bring your silly hat, perch it on your curious brain & relax.

Hi,

I love classical movies too. Since I watched most of them in Germany growing up, I don't know their original English titles. It's nice to hear them in the original voices though instead of the dubbed version ;o)

The same kind of goes for the books I read growing up. I don't know their English titles as well...it's so funny to come across a book and thinking, "yep, I've read that before, but it was called something else." ;o)

I joined your neighborhood because I want to stop back by often.
