Read in '08, 1st quarter
I only read books in transit. In most cases, the subway. Also planes and buses but much less frequently. I can’t even begin to calculate an average reading speed due to the indefinite transfer delay, interesting subway goings-on and occasional lapse into an ipod haze, so I present the list as-is, noted at date completed:
1/3: The New York Trilogy
1/10: The Big Sleep
1/13: What We Talk About When We Talk About Love
1/16: I, The Jury
1/28: My Gun is Quick
2/3: Vengence is Mine!
2/13: The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao
2/19: No Country for Old Men
3/9: Money
3/16: The Erasers
3/23: The Wanderers
3/31: Now And On Earth
If I can remember, I’ll post the other quarters later. Also I think Art Garfunkel inspired me to do this? And I sometimes read other printed material: morning Posts, the Paris Review in the bathroom (theory: latent laxative effect?), advertisements, the occasional Sunday Times, etc. Just not on the subway.
