What is a good book gift for the office?
E B
Our office is having a book exchange at our office for Christmas. We have a couple of guys but the rest (7) are women. The exchange is random. What is a good book? Keep in mind that our office is full of readers and have read a lot already. Ideas would be useful- Nothing childish or stupid please!
Answer
Hi there,
Well, if your colleagues are readers who have already read a lot, you should pick something that is not so very well known. Some ideas that would be suitable for men and women and that are not so very well known, but still very good:
- Dorothy Porter, "The Monkey's Mask" (a crime novel in the private eye tradition, but in verse - don't be put of, it is amazing!)
- Kate Grenville, "The Secret River" (an Englishman is sent to the newly opened convict colony Australia and has to decide whether he is good or evil)
- Anthony O'Neill, "The Lamplighter" (this one is a combination of thriller, fantasy and philosophy; I couldn't put it down, but it might not be everyone's cup of tea)
- Friedrich Dürrenmatt, "The Quarry" (a police officer dying of cancer seems to find out that his doctor is a former concentration camp torturer)
- Kazuo Ishiguro, "Never Let Me Go" (clones are raised merely to harvest their organs, but unfortunately turn out to be actual human beings)
I hope this'll help!
Cheers
