I had started Stand on Zanzibar, but my mind's currently ascendant state isn't taking kindly to Brunner's particular smart-arsery at the moment (and, trust me, having read about 100 pages, my "smart-arsery" descriptor is meant in a complimentary fashion - I do intent to finish Zanzibar and then other Brunner books at some stage in the future...perhaps behind Proust's In Search of Some Missing Little Cakes which is the next seventh wave, about to break - possibly very shortly - over my head.
However, right this very minute, I am about to shut down my laptop, go to bed, and start Robert Dessaix's A Mother's Disgrace (since I have not long finished his beautifully melancholic Night Letters - I want to visit Venice, Locarno and Lake Maggiore, and Padua now).
Cheers,
Marc
