They still meet, amazingly, making a quarter century of reading! This is the list of their reads I participated in: BOOK CIRCLE READING LIST Books I've Completed 1)Amado, Jorge, DONA FLOR AND HER TWO HUSBANDS: Adored it! Ghosts get horny, too, and why not? 2)Anonymous, THE TALE OF GILGAMESH: Not sorry I read it, but what a slog. 3) Auster, Paul, THE BOOK OF ILLUSIONS: Sorry I read it, and what a slog. 4)Bambara, Toni Cade, THE SALT EATERS: Wonderful prose, not so much on the storytelling. 5)Beckett, Samuel, MURPHY: Scintillating, superb, fractal geometry in words. 6)Bellow, Saul, MR. SAMMLER’S PLANET: Fun, fun, fun to read. Not the story, mind, but the storytelling! 7)Berendt, John, MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL: Delicious, shimmering prose. Wonderful story. Savannah really should give Mr. Berendt a pension. 8)Bowles, Paul, THE SHELTERING SKY: Tedious twaddle. 9)Burnett, Ivy Compton, MANSERVANT AND MAIDSERVANT: Next to SONS AND LOVERS, the worst, most horrendously offensively overrated piece of crap I've read in my life. 10)Butler, Octavia, KINDRED: Excellent!! 11)Brown, Dan, THE DA VINCI CODE: I plead the Fifth. 12)Cain, James, DOUBLE INDEMNITY: I liked the book better than the movie. 13)Capote, Truman, IN COLD BLOOD: As good as it gets. Only really good thing he wrote. 14)Carroll, Lewis, ALICE IN WONDERLAND & THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS: whatever, you pervy old so-and-so. 15)Carter, Angela, NIGHTS AT THE CIRCUS: *swoon* 16) Carter, Jimmy, PALESTINE: PEACE OR APARTHEID: Tendentious as all hell, but hand it to the man: he can explicate complex issues like nobody's business. 17) Cendrars, Blaise, MORAVAGINE: Yee-ikes! 18) Coetze, J. M. , DISGRACE: Wonderful writing. Is there a story here? 19) Conrad, Joseph, HEART OF DARKNESS: Deserving of its classic status. 20) Cunningham, Michael, THE HOURS: Loved it. Then again, I'm a gay "Mrs. Dalloway" fan. 21) Doctorow, E.L., THE WATERWORKS: Very good, not excellent. 22)Davies, Robertson, THE FIFTH BUSINESS: ...did I read this? 23)DeQuincey, Thomas, CONFESSIONS OF AN ENGLISH OPIUM EATER: Whoo-ee! 24) Dreiser, Theodore, AN AMERICAN TRAGEDY: How I wish Dreiser had written novels. 25) Drury, Alan, ADVISE AND CONSENT: Writing serviceable, story riveting. 26)Dunn, Katherine, GEEK LOVE: Close to the top of any literature lover's life list of lovely books. 27)Durrell, Lawrence, JUSTINE: Almost perfect. 28)Ellison, Ralph, INVISIBLE MAN: Recursion taken to a logical extreme. 29)Faulkner, William, LIGHT IN AUGUST: The Nobel people must've read this one.

Pah. 125) Hawthorne, Nathaniel, THE BLITHEDALE ROMANCE: There is nothing new under the sun, including the New Age. 126) Rhys, Jean, GOOD MORNING, MIDNIGHT: Ladies and gentlewomen, the Lifetime Network presents this historical woman-abused-and-denigrated snore-fest! 127) Yourcenar, Marguerite, THE MEMOIRS OF HADRIAN: I would not be surprised if Hadrian himself had dictated this book to La Yourcenar from Beyond the Veil. Gorgeous. 128) Twain, Mark, LIFE ON THE MISSISSIPPI: There is no point in saying much beyond, "Read it or else." 129) Golding, William, LORD OF THE FLIES and Wiggins, Marianne, JOHN DOLLAR: Both being short, simultaneously read.

Japan has found her Hemingway. 140) Turgenev, Ivan, SKETCHES FROM A HUNTER'S ALBUM: Amorphous; beautiful. 141) Mann, Thomas, DEATH IN VENICE and TONIO KRUEGER: Tiresomely homophobic. 142) Twain, Mark, THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLLEBERRY FINN: Amazingly modern, down to the lack of a real ending. 143) Murray, Albert, TRAIN WHISTLE GUITAR: I liked the memoir better. 144) Greene, Graham, BRIGHTON ROCK: Hate the characters, adore the story. 145) Proust, Marcel, SWANN IN LOVE (tr. Lydia Davis): Astonishing.

Glad I finally read it. 152) McDonald, Ian, DESOLATION ROAD: Delicious. Steinbeck in space. 153) Flaubert, Gustave, MADAME BOVARY (tr. Lydia Davis): Classic novel, deathless.

Robert Graves): It was fun, I suppose. 157) Wilder, Thornton, THE BRIDGE AT SAN LUIS REY: I still love it, though more out of respect than impressed-ness. 158) Wilson, Sloan, THE MAN IN THE GRAY FLANNEL SUIT: Midcentury Modern at its best. 159) O'Neill, Eugene, THE ICEMAN COMETH: Plays, blech. 160) Tolstoy, Leo, HADJI MURAD: Notes for a novel, not ready for publication. 161) Stoppard, Tom, ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD: If it has to be a play, let it be by Stoppard. 162) Graves, Robert, I, CLAUDIUS: Utterly mesmerizing and completely delightful. 163) Burgess, Anthony, A CLOCKWORK ORANGE: Pretentious twaddle. 164) Cather, Willa, MY ÁNTONIA: Of its time, gracefully written, and moderately dull. 165) Gogol, Nikolai, DEAD SOULS: Absurdist delight. 166) Chopin, Kate, THE AWAKENING: Soporific. 167) Hurston, Zora Neale, THEIR EYES WERE WATCHING GOD: Her one masterpiece in an ouevre of competent pleasantness. 168): Silko, Leslie Marmon, CEREMONY: Groundbreaking forty years ago, I suppose, but predictable, tedious twaddle now. 169) Beckett, Samuel, MOLLOY, MALONE DIES, THE UNNAMEABLE: Deeply touching, hard work. 170) Alighieri, Dante, THE INFERNO (tr. Pinsky): A cross between a slasher flick and a rap song. 171) Waugh, Evelyn, SCOOP: "Satire is what closes on Saturday night."
