And Tolkien, of course.

The left hand.. is a great book!!

Jasev, it's a fair question.

While the Great Law of Peace and Handsome Lake's Book of Rites deserve a place in the world's Great Library, they don't make an entertaining read, just like the Communist Manifesto and Darwin's Origin of Species which I've also read. All interesting stuff, but too serious.

I do love Iroquois fairytales, but there are no single titles that stand out for me. I also enjoyed Longfellow's Hiawatha, but of course that doesn't count as Iroquois literature.

Ribannah, What opinion deserves Spanish Literature to you?

I'm in complete agree with thid afirmation

I've read the Darwin's Origin of Species too, and I can affirm it's bored in many occasion but I think it's a great book.

¡Cómpralo! It's a very interesting book! It isn't very entertaining but you can learn many things and concepts.

I don't read Great Law of Peace and Handsome Lake's Book of Rites, but absultely agree with Marx's and Darwin's.

You know....I never thought about that. But if it can be found here, I will find it.

If they sell it at Amazon.com freely enough, they probably do here too.

La cosa curiosa es que estoy un capitalista y no creo en evolución.
