Peter's Literary and Artistic Interests


Literary Interests

Robert M. Pirsig: author of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Lila, two of the most incredible books of our time. Must-reads for any thinking person.
 
Blade Runner: In book form, arguably the best work of science fiction ever. The movie form is more confusing and orders of magnitude less potent, but it's still pretty good. I only have one link here, I suggest searching under Yahoo if you are interested in this work.
Robert Frost: a poet of immense emotional quality and astute views on the commonplace. One of my favorite poets.
 

Art and Cartoon Stuff

Wallace and Gromit Wallace and Gromit: lovable and witty clay-animation characters from Aardman Studios.
Maxfield Parrish: One of the most amazing painters ever, using beautiful blends of colors to a wide range of visuals, from breathtaking mountain vistas to deep forest glens to Venetian lamplighters. Click here to see my own Maxfield Parrish collection!
