This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for March 26, 2007:
Well, like lots of people I have more than one book on the go at any one time. At the very least I have at least one non-fiction and one fiction to choose from in the pile next to my bed.
Right now my non-fiction is Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath (I just finished 'The Gift: Imagination and the Erotic Life of Property' by Lewis Hyde which was fabulous and re-read Anne Lamotts priceless 'Bird by Bird'). Rich Rich Rich.!
For fiction, I'm just starting the 5th of the series of Outlander novels by Diana Gabaldon, The Firey Cross. :-) I also just went to a session at Book Passage with Tracy Chevalier last night. She read from her newest book (on William Blake) Burning Bright and I couldn't help myself from buying it so that's next on my fiction list. The Outlander novels are great fun and - amazingly - have kept my interest in the characters and story strong even through 4 thick volumes. And I deeply love Blake, so imagine Travy's will be good too.
Just for the record, two of my favorite novels of the last few years have been Bel Canto by Ann Patchett and Atonement by Ian McEwan.
