just finished ecce homo by N. and little hans and the ratman by freud
I remember reading a little book by russell called something like "basic problems of philosophy". I just remember that the metaphysics drove me insane with boredom and I stopped reading it.

Hahaha, definitely not the first book I'd recommend for a person interested in Russell.

Wow.
Glad you like it, man.
Have you read much by Saramago? Just wondering which of his I should try on next. I noticed there's a sequel to Blindness. But I'm not sure I want to visit this world again right away.

I think the only other Saramago I've read is Ensayo Sobre la Lucidez (I think the title in English is Seeing), which is good, but not as good as Blindness. But some people I trust when it comes to such things have said Cain is worth reading.
