Things come in threes these days. My literary obsessiveness has gone into overdrive. I re read Heart of Darkness and Things Fall Apart and No longer at Ease in two days. But I was also thinking of some other authors I can do the same thing with (i.e. read compulsively for many nights in a row).
Elie Wiesel--Night and Dawn
Donald Barthelme--my mentor in college was one of his students. She introduced me to him and his brother Richard.
Amy Tan
Don Dillo
I used to read so many books in one week just to keep up with my lit class reading list. it's nice to be back in the cradle of obessive complusive reading. I still have a ten page list from college on books i should read.
Just some random thoughts about authors and books. |

But not to worry - we humans can be obsessive about worse things than reading.
You just go ahead and 'obsess on'.
I love reading - in print and I like to get audio renditions of books - it's good to be able to listen to the stories while gardening or out walking somewhere.
