Your link goes to a non-existent wikipedia page. I'm not familiar with "Einsteins Dreams" and would like to know about this. I enjoyed the read, thanks.

Link is fixed. We were talking the other night about what books we'd have wanted our lovers to have read and this one came up. My girlfriend gave it to me as a birthday present many years ago. It really is a very nice read, I highly recommend it.

Thanks. It sounds like an interesting concept for a novel. If it was good enough for the now defunct "Talk of the Nation," it's good enough for me. Perhaps we should suggest it for the #hubskibookclub in the future?

You know, I don't think it'd be appropriate for a full fledged book club. All the vignettes are more or less this length and some have even more topics to delve in to. Maybe a shortstory club?

What do you think humanodon?

I think that a book like this might actually enable more people to participate in #hubskibookclub. Simply break it down into chunks and then prep some discussion questions and see where it goes.

Each section? Or clump multiple sections into one discussion? I think there might be too much to discuss in one section to try to coordinate multiple.

Oh, I don't know. I'd have to see it for myself. Anyway, why not give it a try, if there's interested people?

I can agree with that!
