The Dice Man
1 journaler for this copy...
This has been languishing on my bookshelf for a while, and should have stayed there for a while longer, as there are (hopefully) some better books there waiting to be read.
It is the autobiography of an American psychiatrist who, in 1969, suddenly decides to live his life according to the roll of a die.
I'm now on p 424 and hope to finish it tomorrow. If so, I'll release it somewhere between London and Barcelona.
Update - 08/02/08 - did indeed finish it, but didn't find anywhere to release it, so it's now available!
On reflection, it's not such a bad book - it just goes on a bit and the sex scenes are a bit torrid. The basic idea of a life philosophy and role playing based on chance is kind of interesting.

I've sent the book to Chris in Japan on a Bookmooch.
