Janis Joplin/Summertime
Live in Stockholm in 1969!
What I’ve read! This year I’m ahead on my new years’ promise! Maybe I can make it to 2 books/week:
15. Från Pax Romana till Pax Americana – Björn Hettne
++++
This book was clear and nice and just basically good to read if you want to understand the world systems better. I don’t have that much more to say about it, it’s always a bit hard to write about school litterature. I had much use of it anyway.
16. Papalagi, den vite mannen – Erich Scheurmann
+++
This book was published in the 1920s and made up to be speaches by a samoan chief to his people, about why they should not be seduced by western life style and such… I thought it was an interesting book because of the perspectives of both the writer in the preface of the book and his fictional chief aswell so I liked it even though it would have been way more interesting had it been real.
I am now reading the Tin Drum by Günter Grass, still.. it’s taking me a while because I keep taking breaks from it, but I love it, and also Scars of Sweet Paradise, the life and times of Janis Joplin by Alice Echols which has already made me appreciate Janis’s music way more than I did before. I don’t usually read biographies, but Suss does and has inspired me!
