now stop it. are you trying to drive us all to despair ??

i've just started City by Alessandro Baricco (i always want to double all the consonants in his name, but it's just the c). i haven't read any of his books in a long time (several years), but as i read the first page i wondered to myself, "why do i even bother reading anything else ??? i should just read Baricco every day, and when i get to the end of the last book, just start back at the beginning again."

oh, except for "Océan Mer" (Ocean Sea ? not sure of the english title). that one is a devastating read. i read it once, years ago, and i'm still not quite over it. i think that's enough. it's worth it though, if you can take it.
