I made about a dozen stops in town today (three bookstores and one library) and couldn't come up with hide nor hair of [i]Taras Bulba[/i] in any way shape or form, except for 1 DVD version at the library which was most likely the old one. I didn't even get that because I was sure the video rental place on the other side of town would have it, which they didn't. I'll order the book online. I already have a whole stack of books to read beside my chair, but this has become a quest now.

Forget it. I don't want you to read it anymore. As a Bohemian, you owe BLIND obedience to me. And I'll see to it that you won't be able to get the book. ; -))))

Since my University courses have a ton of required reading (weekly short stories, several novels etc.) I'm currently reading Emily Brontë's "Wuthering Heights", what a disturbing story it has been so far and I hope it gets worse.
Before that I read Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility", it worked quite well as a satire (the only plausible reading for me).
But if you appreciate classics, I must give my highest seal of approval to this classic play
[url=http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Farce_of_Sodom,_or_The_Quintessence_of_Debauchery]"The Farce of Sodom, or The Quintessence of Debauchery[/url]", it is a very nice story that the whole family can enjoy.

Glad you like it, I wasn't too impressed, as you said, it doesn't really show much of Brian's point of view, but I'm still glad I got it. I thought it seemed like she got most of her information from articles and people who barely knew Queen, and based the whole book on fairly limited information. It would be better if she would have asked Brian stuff and asked people close to him, and also focused more on Brian rather then Queen. And the book is not authorised by Queen, as far as I know. Glad you're enjoying it though, even if the content leaves a bit to be desired, its still a nice book to have, I think.

Not to everyone's taste but I really loved 'The Effect Of Living Backwards' by Heidi Julavits.
A bit like 'The Corrections' by Jonathan Franzen, crossed with Douglas Coupland and Freud on acid.
