Oh my God, his Lisp interpreter in Python: amazing. At the time I was just getting a grip with Python and starting in Lisp, it came at just the right moment in my autodidaction.

Really really good, although for a lot of people here it might be a little elementary (but then, the best code always feels elementary even when doing something advanced!)

IMHO, the most beautiful lisp interpreter in a language that is not lisp is this one in prolog.
