    Stumbled across your channel and adore your passions for books and reading. Also Wittgenstein's Mistress is really good.

      Pleased to meet you! It’s a passion I believe I profit from cultivating. I am greatly looking forward to Wittgenstein’s mistress. Maybe It’s one of the books I should take on this weeklong trip I got coming up in the middle of July…

    I like this sitting in the chair and pulling books out thing you’ve got going - reminds me of Paperbird’s bookshelf tour

    I have read a bunch of Ernie Ernaux, but I have not read "The Years". The first one I read by Ernaux was "A Woman's Story."

      Gosh, "A Woman's Story" seems like such a beautifully written thing. I can't wait to get to that one. Just reading about "A Woman's Story" has made me more excited to get back to "The Years" too.
      Thanks for the comment

    You have the same edition of Invisible Man as I had in college! I can recall how thrilled I was to finally read that novel!
    Read your DeFoe!
    Did you like Gilead? I read Housekeeping last year and I recommend it!
    DeQiuncey was a damn genius!

      We have the same feelings about de Quincey. I did like Gilead, but I read it 10 years ago, so my feeling about it is kind of dim. But it’s a positive feeling. When I read it, it felt unlike any fiction I liked at that time. Thanks for the encouragement to read my Defoe. Gosh I’m excited to read Roxana

    Wittgenstein’s Mistress is pretty good. Definitely keep that older copy - Dalkey’s new edition has so many typos that it’s almost unreadable.
