I've read other works with tales within tales (Don Quixote comes to mind) and enjoyed those. I may well read Melmoth after finishing Musashi. Thanks for the recommendation.

I'm actively trying to stop myself of that habit because, like you, I feel it dilutes the overall effect and the full enjoyment of reading only one book at one time.
I just read "The Passage," by Justin Cronin and was fully immersed in the story. I attribute that to concentrating only on that book, in addition to the wonderful writing by Cronin.
