ok, so mm may be blogging now that the 'upstairs' computer has been fixed.....alas, it has also be virtually wiped clean.....but that is another story....it is fixed and it is back.......i am almost finished with a heartbreaking story of staggering genius, an outstanding book of wit amongst tragedy...........a brief example..........he includes diagragms of the series of apartments in which he lives in the course of the story, not to show basic living arrangements, but to show the direction and length to which he and his brother can slide across the floor in socks.............this just cracks me up............. he includes menus that he and his brother (age 8) have concocted using their favorite ingredients (their taco recipe is curious at best) as well as an extensive set of standards by which potential girlfriends will be judged on the basis of their reaction to said menus...........i am enjoying this book immensely, and consider it to be great literature, as it is both engaging and accessible to the reader, as opposed to absalom,absalom, which was neither........
