When I had to read them in school, I read the Cliff or Monarch notes instead of actually reading them. I want to read them now for pleasure & get an insight into their place in literary history & how they have influenced our culture & society as a result. The lists I’ve found are random and subjective instead of in order of significance and value to our society. I’m looking for a comprehensive list of the best classical books ever written. Any suggestions where I could find a list like this?
I know that lead bullets can kill a person with one shot but the death is painfully slow due to lead poisoning. I heard that metal jacket bullets were used to be more “humane” because it’s not instant kill. And that this conversion of types of bullets can be traced to the Geneva Convention… True or false?
I’m 15 right now, about 16 and I love to make music. I play piano and I sing but I don’t really know how well I can sing yet because not many people have heard me. I’m planning on doing a lot in music and I’d like to become a recording artist but I don’t know how or when I need to try and get into the music business. If you can help me it’d be a big help.
