yeah, they make such a good couple. Even when Life isn't all Haa... was televised, they played a married couple. There was an interview about him not so long ago. He was funny and talked about how him and Meera ended up together. She's amazing, he's a lucky man.

A great non-fiction book by Douglas Adams that you would love is Last Chance to See. It's about the author going on a search for endangered animals. It's very funny and also very moving.

Just started East of Eden, by John Steinbeck.

A streetcar named Desire is one of Tenesee's Williams amazing works, as well as The Glass Menagerie. To really appreciate them though, i'd advise to read about his history and what sort of a childhood he had because that will give more depth to the characters in his book. I really like him because i can understand the guilt that he lived with throughout his life, something you wouldn't always find today in the western culture.
