Books, I read some
Jul. 5th, 2012 09:11 pmAlthough not as many lately as I might like. Still. In the last few months I've read...
D.H. Lawrence, ( Lady Chatterly's Lover )
Mary Ann Schaeffer and Annie Barrows, ( The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society )
---
At home, I'm most of the way through Robin Hobb's Ship of Magic and adoring it (again). In Oxford I picked up a Vintage Paperback copy of Possession and am reading it (again), a little more slowly this time, and always carrying a pencil or ballpoint so that I can scrawl all over it. I'm not normally one to write on my leisure reading (all over my textbooks, yes), but it feels wrong to read such a self-consciously literary novel without treating it as a primary source. I'm finding, tracking little connections and making notes-to-self in the margins. Whoever ends up reading my copy after me is either going to be driven mad, or greatly amused.
