	I am also a read of SF.  I would like to see some discussion
on NON-SF books here, I'd really like to find some other type of
books that I enjoy as well, SF is going the way of all popular
genres.
	I enjoyed Trevanian's "Shibumi" quite a bit.  
It is a "spy" novel of a sort, involving the usual international
conspiracies, etc.  It seems, though, to have a little more
class than the average.  It has a view of the US government that
Mr. Turner may well enjoy.  (No, I'm NOT being insulting, I'm using
the easiest way I know to describe the protagonists viewpoint.)
I was quite surprised at this novel, so I looked for several more of the
same genre, and was sadly disappointed.

	I guess I'll stick to Yeats and SF.  (What a combination!)
