While walking around in Bogota I saw this sign and was immediately intrigued.
All the more so as I saw Situationist artwork on the tops of their coffee tables outside. This is what the storefront looked like when it was closed: Read or Die!Sure enough I go inside and sure enough there’s a decent English langauge section. Decent not in the sense of very big, 4 small shelves, but packed with some good books.
I’ve had The Way of the World on my Amazon wishlist for quite some time, so seeing it and John le Carre’s The Honourable Schoolboy – I picked them up.
I’m almost finished with the former, and it’s making me long for my travel journals from Eastern Europe to start writing something similar.
As for my Doctorate research, I’ve just started reading this:

Which was produced by the Instituto Colombiano para el Fomento de la Educacion Superior.

1. CIENCIA, TECNOLOGÍA, SOCIEDAD Y DESARROLLO
2. LA INVESTIGACIÓN
