just finished Erlend Loe's latest novel "Doppler". if you're Norwegian READ IT! if you're not, do so when it comes out in English (which i really hope it does)... truly inspiring story of Doppler who is sick of society and moves into the forest for total exclusion except for the befriended moose baby (what is a moose baby really called, a calf or what? i'm just pretty sure the technical term isn't moose baby though - and yes, i am an ignorant foreigner...) named "Bongo"... it inspired me to try the same, but as it is unlikely that'll i'll become best friends with a moose, (he wouldn't even have to be called Bongo - i'm not THAT picky…) i'm not sure it'd be worth it... so i think i'll stick around...

Bongo is the best name that could ever be given to a Moose.
a moose by any other name wouldn't be the same...
it sounds like an awesome story :) i want to read it.
