What book have you read lately ?
Mine - When a Pet Dies
I've lost seven pets in the last 5 years. I am an avid animal advocate. It is terribly heartbreaking.
Oswald's Tale by Norman Mailer - a book about Lee Harvey Oswald and the JFK assassination.
shareThis sounds interesting. I remember I was in my elementary classroom when JFK was assassinated. Terrible terrible day. Then watched LIVE on TV when Ruby shot Oswald. Crazy ass stuff.
shareMailer went looking for a conspiracy but didn't find one.
shareSame here. Returned to school after lunch to an ominous, grim silence. After being seated in my classroom, the news came on over the PA system.
The Day Kennedy Was Shot by Jim Bishop is also good. Read it as a teenager.
I was in 7th grade. My teacher was called out into the hall. When he came back , he was sobbing. I will NEVER forget it.
shareI won't either. It was my first real wake-up call to something being wrong in this country. I still watch documentaries about it from time to time.
shareOne of my classmates had a birthday that day. HE never forgets either, poor guy.
shareYeah, memory works through association, so that's an indelible link.
