jazzbo Posted December 2 Report Posted December 2 I have begun reading this timely-published book and find it excellent in many ways: accurate in its factual presentation (I know more than a bit about the subject matter) and entertaining as it educates and explains. s-l1600994×1500 90.5 KB Quote
ejp626 Posted December 14 Report Posted December 14 I just finished Austen's Persuasion. I'm just starting Dawn Powell's Angels on Toast. Almost the entire thing seems to be about businessmen cheating on their wives and trying to get away with it. Definitely not my favorite Powell... Quote

ejp626 Posted 8 hours ago Report Posted 8 hours ago Almost finished with Powell's Angels on Toast. It's curious this is set nearly as much in Chicago as New York. Definitely not as good as The Locusts Have No King, which I'll have to reread one of these days. I'm just starting Susanna Kaysen's Asa, As I Knew Him, which is good so far. Quote
jazzbo Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago I started re-reading (for may be the second or third time) Raymond Chandler’s “The Lady in the Lake.” I just get into a particular enchanted zone reading Chandler. His writing has enthralled me since I was a young man. Picked up this edition at Half Price Books: Quote
