Re-starting The Recognitions for the umpteenth time and being blown away
again, I decided to go to Amazon.com  to order J R and CG before they go out
of print. Noticing that Amazon had some recommendations just for me, I
clicked (for the first time) to see what their computers thought I'd like.
This rather surprised me:
