Fall is here.
Coffee. Books. Soft, well-worn flannel sheets. Books. Sounds of geese overhead, flying South. Books.
There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
—Emily Dickinson—
So what books are RfMers reading or wanting to read?
I’m hoping to get to:
Patrick Modiano - Such Fine Boys
Rousseau - Reveries of the Solitary Walker
Theodor Storm — The Rider On The White Horse
Eve Babitz — Slow Days, Fast Company
Robert Musil — The Confusions Of Young Törless
(Done & Done, have you read that last one, by Musil?)
