RED Book Reviews

"RED is the most joyful and dreadful thing in the physical universe; it is the fiercest note, it is the highest light, it is the place where the walls of this world of ours wear thinnest and something beyond burns through. It glows in the blood which sustains and in the fire which destroys us, in the roses of our romance and in the awful cup of our religion. It stands for all passionate happiness, as in faith or in first love." -G. K. Chesterton

About Me

Ex-computer programmer, ex-social recluse, current student of martial arts, aspiring jack-of-all-trades. Also I read a lot.
I don't have much of a memory, so I write down my impressions of the many and sundry books I've read, in order that I may remember them.
"RED" is my initials and my name, as well as being an amazing colour and a philosophy of life (read Chesterton). It is in no way referring to the communist tendency to use that colour.
