Whatcha readin?
Just read "The Final Solution: A Story of Detection" by Michael Chabon, which was quite good, had some very pretty writing and imagery--the threads of honey part is never going to exit my mind. Just started Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" and am still living with Steinbeck's "The Log from the Sea of Cortez", which is really great. I'd never heard of it before finding it in a bookshop, and neither has anyone I've told it about, but it's so good. It's got more Steinbeck thoughts in it than any of his fiction--just bit after bit after bit.
