...with this Max Behr fellow?

Seriously though, each year I attempt to expand into a different author/realm of course architecture. Last year was Bernard Darwin with excellent results.

This year I feel ready for Max Behr.

Where should I start? Are there any compilations of his writings out there?

Kyle may just be your young disciple, Tom, ready to follow in your and Geoff's footsteps.  Kyle, are you sure you are ready to take the trials and then the vows?  Monastic isolation for study, deciphering the Behr Code and celebacy isn't for everyone  ;)

Monastic isolation, eh? Hmmm... I need that anyway, need to get this rendering for the Doak internship done and shipped this afternoon.

The celibacy thing may be happening anyway, despite my efforts.

Spending five years writing a 650 page book on the life and work of William Flynn felt like monastic isolation at times.  Do we get to see the rendering?

Kyle --

You might want to warm up by reading something a little less dense and challenging, like "Ulysses" or "Das Kapital."

I can plow through Atlas Shrugged in about a week and a half. So I know all about dense works.

And yes, I meant my rendering.  ;)
