Suggestions on books to include under the "Stop Looking at me, Swan" heading?

'Cloudy With a Chance of Plague'. It also reminds me of the time I warned my friend that an enemy of his would be at a party he was considering attending by sending him a note that read 'Forecast calls for fat turds with a chance of goatee'. Based on this similarity alone, I will read all your thoughtfully written recommendations, except maybe Deliverance, which could provoke unwanted attention in the subway, where I get most of my reading done ... though this could make another fine topic ... 'Stop Looking At Me, Swan: Tawdry or Otherwise Inadvisable Books That Should Not Be Brought To Public Places For Fear of the Furtive and Disapproving Ganders They Might Elicit'.

I don't know much about its actual details, but it's got a "feel" that kind of grabs hold of me now and then. Desolation. Glory just beyond the outstretched fingertips. Such fucking cold. That kind of thing. I'll pick up Solomon's book mostly based on your review. It's nice to see literary reviews by someone who's obviously actually excited by the act of reading.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00484686163627286971noreply@blogger.com
