What We Are Reading

Read in order to live.
Gustave Flaubert (1821 - 1880), novelist

We just finished reading “The Double” by Jose Saramago and enjoyed it very much. We are in the process of deciding which book to really delve into next “Cole Porter” by William McBrien or the highly recommended, by B2, “The Fortress of Solitude” by Jonathan Lethem. "De-Lovely" was an interesting movie, which we just watched. We had no inkling about Cole Porter's life or background and being a Sinatra, Ella, Torme fan, there is no excuse for that.

Funny that you should use the pronoun "we", as I, too, just read Saramago's "The Double." And then his "The Cave." And as soon as I finish this comment I will be reading the last 30 pages of Hari Kunzru's "Transmission."
