De profundis and other writings - Oscar Wilde

De profundis is a letter that Wilde wrote to his former friend Bosie while serving his sentence at Reading jail.
It's a long, beautiful and very sorrowful text where the author tries to explain the sequence of events that lead to his imprisonment, what his friend's responsibilities were and what mistakes he himself made (mostly out of weakness and kindness, in his opinion).

The River of Lost Footsteps: A Personal History of Burma - Thant Myint-U

The author of this book is an American writer of Burmese descent. His grandfather was a colleague and close friend of the heroes of Burmese independence and the Secretary-general of the UN from 1962 to 1971. Aung San Suu Kyi, the National League for Democracy leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate, was a frequent guest at his family's house in New York, before the 1988 uprising.

Twilight of the Idols, or, How to Philosophize with a Hammer - Friedrich Nietzsche

Another book against traditional morals by F.W. Nietzsche. This means a book against traditional religions and philosophy, as they have put forward a supposedly "real" world, accessible through reason or faith, as opposed to the "false" world offered by the senses.
This is a mystification. Morals tend to inhibit passion in order to avoid all possible negative consequences. The mistake lies in trying to extirpate passions rather then spiritualize them. Morals should help human life by removing any obstacles to happiness and free expression of natural instincts. Yet, they do exactly the opposite: they oppose life, instincts and the senses.

The TV car - Bangkok, Thailand

The usual crowd sits in two rows:
football, curries and cheap beer
flood with good mood the atmosphere
and help all conversation flows.
A sudden force engulfs the scene
and in seconds every movement stops,
spoons are hanging in mid air,
all the faces turn as one.
