The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao

I remember having more than a few laughs, but only vaguely do I remember the plot.

I'm enjoying it so far, and yeah, it's good to read a book that includes real laughs, not ironic ones.

I'm able to read whatever I want for the first time in a year...and I'm reading something that I didn't complete during my required reading period.

[The Argonaut]

I saw George Saunders a few weeks ago, so I've been reading a lot of his books. I also just read Portnoy's Complaint. I had such a good time reading it that now I'm trying Roth's Ghost Writer. I can see myself getting stuck on a Roth kick for a while. For some reason, I've avoided him almost entirely up to this point, writing him off as some kind of pervert. Strange of me.

I read The Human Stain and knew that a long Roth run was in my future. Not sure which one will be next. But the fucker's a genius. I want to do all of them!

I finished The Ghost Writer today, so I went and picked up Zuckerman Unbound and The Anatomy Lesson.
