What I’ve Just Finished Reading
A reread of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. I had intended to reread Through the Looking-Glass, too, but to my distress I found that I no longer enjoyed the absurdism of the first book (maybe politics have imitated art a little too hard in this area recently?), so it seemed pointless to subject myself to the second as well.
Maybe I’ll give it another go in a decade or two and find that I’ve come back around to enjoying it again.
What I’m Reading Now
A little bit of this and a little bit of that, but nothing that merits a progress report right now. My attention has been mostly taken up with the exigencies of a plumbing crisis, alas.
What I Plan to Read Next
Still waiting for the library to bring me Evelina!
