7. Play It As It Lays by Joan Didion
3 months ago
Oh, Joan, you own my heart. This was a killer. I’m going to spend my whole summer wearing big sunglasses, drinking gin in the afternoon, and driving the CA freeways thinking of Didion.
6. The Free-Lance Pallbearers by Ishmael Reed
3 months ago
Reed is one crazy cat. This was a little rough on me due to my sensitivity to the scatological and to allegory. This book is one big poo joke. And yet, really funny and fairly astute.
B+.
