Current reading list...

If anyone is interested, here are some books that I have read in the last month, or that I am still working on:

"Howard's End" by EM Forester

"Light in August" by William Faulkner

"Far From the Madding Crowd" by Thomas Hardy

"Love in the Time of Cholera" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

"One Hundred Years of Solitude" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

"A Farewell to Arms" by Ernest Hemingway

I'd especially recommend the two by Garcia Marquez, a Columbian writer. It was one of his books, "Chronicle of a Death Foretold," that got me interested in world / multi-ethnic / postcolonial literature. Read them and we can talk about magical realism! So fun.
