sisters & brothers: i've been quiet, i know.
oddly
enough it's not from lack of words but the opposite: too many things
to say, no time for glib summaries, i want longwinded. For example:
the books I'm reading are all excellent and rewarding, but to
actually talk about them would require paragraphs, which would
require time, which i don't have since i'm doing other things like
reading them in the first place, recording and arranging sounds, and
trying to seriously contemplate what i call "the
beginning of the end" ////
these fine burnable books are as follows -- if you have read them perhaps you agree and neither of us need to explain anything, we can just nod:
Nada - Carmen Laforet1
The File on H. - Ismail Kadare (thanks Lillevan!!)
My Cocaine Museum - Michael Taussig
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? - Philip K Dick (thanks Soze!!)

when i bought nada for my lit. class, it was really, really hard to find because there was only one publisher that printed it, according to my teacher and like, every book store in granada. now i'm seeing there are more versions, which is great, because the book is everything the guardian article says and more (i really don't like to say shit like that but it's true).- - - - - - - -
