A Book For You
I think I missed last week and so this week I'll give away two books,The Metaphysical Club: A Story of Ideas in America by Louis Menand and In The Wake: A Novel by Per Petterson
The winners are: Age of Deception for The Metaphysical Club and Sean for In the Wake. Please contact me by email with your mailing addresses.
I'll take all requests for the books left in the comments during the next 24 hours and then use a random number generator to determine the winners. You can enter for one book or the other but not both, so please specify the book you want. I'll then ship the book at my expense to the winners. The offer is limited to residents of the U.S. and Canada. My apologies to my good friends in other countries but the cost of shipments to other destinations is simply too high.
Note:The offer is open only to registered comments others will be ignored. Please make it clear if you want to be considered for the book or are just commenting, and don't forget to specify the book you want.

Teehee, the main protagonist of "In The Wake" shares my name! Too bad you can only ship it to the U.S. or Canada, but since the author is a fellow Norwegian I'd rather read it in it's original language anyway.

It's a wonderful book, one of my favorites from the past year. If you haven't read his more recent "Out Stealing Horses" it is also excellent. You're fortunate to be able to read it in Norwegian. As good as it is in English I imagine it is even better in Norwegian.

Id like a chance at the metaphysical club as well, it sounds like a nice counter point to all the Medieval history I've been reading.
