I'm currently reading "The Unnamed" by Joshua Ferris. Trying to finish it ASAP to quickly read Anna David's "Bought" and Tom Dolby's "The Trouble Boy" before summer comes. Taking a Literature class where I'll be reading tons more in like a month.

^ Yet, on the other end- and quite contrarily to the above claim-, I more and more make it my custom to only read books by already dead authors since this has proved to be a further filter for (a good) quality of writing for me.

edit: Recently I have only read some joke-books:

Bukowski (Sunlight, Here I Am)...interviews mostly.

The Young Fogey Handbook (from the Nineteen-Eighties)...found this recommended somewhere on the net and it was not only fun but it also unwittingly described some of the things that I tend to do and like, myself...such as long walks, recreational graveyard-visits and literary and humanistic studies..

Heller -- Catch 22. Always wanted to read it and I saw a copy at the airport bookstore.

What ho! "Foreign and Second Language Learning" by William Littlewood, published by Cambridge Language Teaching Library, I say!

 

[Jokerman]

Divine Filth- Georges bataille

 

[Orpheus]

Reading the chapter "Lestrygonians" from Ulysses for my Brit Lit class. May have to read Ulysses and Portrait of the Artist of the Young Man this summer. James Joyce may be the subject of my next idol worship.
