Three authors I love I used to keep the records of every book I had read ever since I saw a movie in which the main character will get his hairs cut only after he has read 100 books. It took me much more time than I thought to surpass this number. If I was bald at the beginning, I could have my hairs braided at the end. There are more than three authers I love, but I am only going to name Kurt Vonnegut, J.D.Salinger, Lin Yutang, and no reason why three not four. They are incomparable to each other because they are good in different way. Kurt Vonnegut arranges words as well as plots in a remarkably creative way.And he is a big fan of philosophy. J.D.Salinger was an insightful observer of human beings. Lin Yutang was a wise man and he also wrote about philosophy. But tastes are changing. I don't know which three I will list five years later. I wanted to be a 30-year old in junior high for reading too much Murakami Haruki, and wanted to die for Milan Kundera or had a fling with Henry Miller.

Correct this entry?  OK!  An irregular noun, "hair" is.  Now you get the old joke:  "Oh!  Did you get a hair cut?"... "No, I got them all cut!"  Ha ha!  I loved the authors you liked and I think it's fascinating to see J.D. Salinger coming back after almost fifty years and coming from China of all places.  Incredible!  I was sad when Kurt Vonnegut died not too long ago.  He played himself in the movie "Back to School":  http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&cf=info&id=1800030880

I live in Santa Monica, not far from Point Sur, California, which is where Henry Miller lived.  Good luck!
