even breathe. I do everything at a fast cadence: eat fast, sleep fast.

Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez'
From the Nobel Prize-winning author of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" comes a masterly evocation of an unrequited passion so strong that it binds three people's lives together for more than fifty years. In the story of Florentino Ariza, who waits more than half a century to declare his undying love to the beautiful Fermina Daza, whom he lost to Dr. Juvenal Urbino so many years before, Garcia Marquez has created a vividly absorbing fictional world, as lush and dazzling as a dream and as real and immediate as our own deepest longings.

Madame bovary by Gustave Flaubert
Madame Bovary (1856) is Gustave Flaubert's
first published novel and is considered by many critics to be a
masterpiece. The story focuses on a doctor's wife, Emma Bovary, who has adulterous affairs
and lives beyond her means in order to escape the banalities and
emptiness of provincial life. Though the basic plot is rather simple,
even archetypal, the novel's true art lies in its details and hidden
patterns.

A cultural paradox:Fun in mathematics
A Cultural Paradox: Fun in Mathematics" by Jeffrey A
Zilahy is a great book. It is unique and very well done. And the title
turns out to be true - mathematics actually is
fun. Well, at least in this author’s hands. He has an engaging style of
writing and a great sense of humour. We have several pages of maths
jokes, and a photo of Kurt Gödel, who contributed greatly to removing
uncertainty from mathematics, and it is labelled as ‘Probably a photo of
Kurt Gödel’. Even the publication date is given in binary code! Each
chapter is a brief conversation on a certain topic, such as pi,
probability, statistics, the birthday paradox, the New Kind of Science,
various mathematicians, zero and binary numbers. We also look at the
mathematics of spaghetti and meet undercover mathematicians such as Art
Garfunkel and Brian May.
