People also ask me what I'm reading and what to read. So, with that in mind, here is a list void--for the most part--of unprecedented sarcasm (I'm not trying to turn this into a book blog, I'll just throw this stuff in once in awhile). I've sort of borrowed the format from Nick Hornby's old column in The Believer.
Currently reading:
2666 by Roberto Bolano
Just read:
Let The Great World Spin by Colum McCann
Light Years by James Salter
The Untouchable by John Bainville
Books that sit by my bed because I DID start them but then got distracted:
Herzog by Saul Bellow
A Good Soldier by Ford Maddox Ford
Books I bought to feel good about myself but have no intention of reading soon:
Sabbath's Dinner by Philip Roth
Underworld by Don DeLillo
Book that seems ambitious but I like to think about reading:
The Museum of Innocence by Orhan Pamuk
