Finally we'll be on our way home late next week. As it is impossible to sum up a year anywhere, I thought for this final post I'd put down what I read this year. As usual, I kind of read whatever comes to hand, but it always fit with something going on in my life. If anyone wants to talk books, that'd be fine.
Passage to India, E.M. Forster
Zeitoun, Dave Eggers
Money, Martin Amis
Freedom, Jonathan Franzen
Exit Ghost, Philip Roth
Princess (life story of a saudi princess)
Disgrace, J.M. Coetzee
The Complete Short Stories of JG Ballard
The Beautiful and the Damned, F. Scott Fitzgerald
I read Freedom, Disgrace and another Martin Amis this year (Dead Babies) so I thought it enough of a co-incidence to say a big 'hellooo' and send a large hug from the UK to you all. I hope the move back to the US went really well and you guys are settling in. Looking forward to hearing what you get up to in coming months. I may be in NYC at some point and will be sure to seek you out...take care in the meantime, Emily x
