Have you read "The Master & Margarita" by Bulgakov? If not, it's an absolute must.

Re; "Master and Margarita".

I just wanted to comment that my friend David is an artist from Israel and I loved M&M so much that I got this ring he designed based on Bolgakov's work. The ring looks really trippy and esoteric and would make an awesome gift for either Wendy or Lisa. It reminds me to Understand that you are the creator of your own reality- like in the song Light.

Here's the link-

Staring at the Sun was NOT inspired by Julian Barnes. Someone gave us the book after the song was written and I love the book! It continues to be an inspiration in a lot of ways, AND i like many of his other books. There was one that i couldn't crack though..... i am forgetting the name. it just was too verbose and my brain got tired. duh yeah... Hop On Pop ! there ya go......
