Who's reading what?

Ha, I can imagine your audacious entrance! Why not indeed. I'm a big Kafka fan, yet I've never read Metamorphosis, I must remedy that.

It's a great story! And the opening sentence sticks in the mind, like Orwell's "It was a bright cold day in April and the clcoks were striking thirteen."

Cheers,

Just finished The Road by Cormac McCarthy. A tad too bleak for my tastes, but then it is a post-apocalyptic novel.

All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. Insightful, some poetry in the prose, though the narrative progresses at a snail's pace.

They made a movie of it that's on Netflix.

Cheers,

The Satsuma Complex by Bob Mortimer. The narrative is familiar, but the writing is not. Occasionally amusing too.

The Satsuma Complex by Bob Mortimer.

Received that as a Chrimbo present, not got around to it yet. I do love Bob though.

Room to Dream by David Lynch and Kristine McKenna.

A hybrid biography. An interesting approach where McKenna writes a chapter then Lynch answers or corrects it in the next chapter, or at least that's how I'm reading it?

What lies beyond that white picket fence?

The Shadow King by Maaza Mengiste. Strange book, but gave me some insight on Ethiopia.

These Silent Mansions by Jean Sprakland. Who knew that graves could be so interesting?
