Books & Authors - October 2006

Was Nobokov's subject choice a bad idea? I had this argument with someone. I think that however disturbing and wrong it is it doesn't matter because the book is good, well written and made to shock and be diffrent... which clearly it succeeds in!
But some people think it is just wrong... what do you think?

I am an adult now, but there are some series from when I was a kid that I still would like to read now even after giving it up do to business for a few years. I used to read the magic tree house, Fudge series, etc. I read them as kid and now as an adult would it be wrong to start reading them again. It does seem embarassing to be reading a kids book.

I'm writing a Harry Potter fanfic and I want to make sure I'm not obscuring too much of what actually happened in the books. Can I find these books printed out on some website? I basically know what happens and what order it happens in, but I just want to make sure that I'm not going to obscure it too much by changing when some things happen.

I mean, I have seen the dictionary definitions, but to what is something compared to make it quality? Robert Pirsig delves into this in his book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance." Really think about it, and is rather puzzling. Your thoughts?
