ejp626 Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 Had a bit of a detour but now will try to wrap up Bellow's The Adventures of Augie March. I was reading Murakami's new short story collection - First Person Singular. Unfortunately, I found these stories pretty shallow and unsatisfying. Definitely glad I just picked it up from the library!

ghost of miles Posted June 26 Author Report Share Posted June 26 My NYRB summer sale shipment just arrived (the NYRB summer sale is practically an annual holiday at this house), and I'll be starting this one tonight.

Larry Kart Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 I went big on the sale too. Of the ones you bought, I can highly endorse "Troubles." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re your question about Humboldt, there's so much in those 475 pages, you could design a background course of study encompassing everything from the philosophy of Rudolf Steiner to the city of Chicago, not forgetting of course Bellow's marital and legal woes! Fascinating stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
