My reading life has been woefully inadequate this week, mainly because the books I've wanted to read have remained, well, on the shelf.
Required reading such as Profiles in Courage, East of Eden, and Foundations of Economics: AP, Third Edition has commandeered most of my time; however, I've still managed to leaf through some interesting writing.
I made some major headway on Pigeon English this week, and hope to finish tomorrow. I'm still not quite sure what I think of this book...I'm normally a fan of coming-of-age genre fiction, but this novel doesn't quite fit the mold. I liked it? I think?
I guess I really would have liked to have seen more of the pigeon, an arcane, omniscient presence in Harri's narrative. All the substance comes with the bird.
Also, by way of dare from Jay Parekh, I will now be reading The Children's Blizzard. Oh boy.
