I finished up my first book of the year last night, Natsu Higuchi's
Takekurabe. The book was originally published in Japan in 1895 under the male pseudonym of Ichiyo Higuchi.
I've three other things going:
- I am listening to the Librivox recording of Thomas Hardy's Far From the Madding Crowd
- I am reading R.O. Kwon's The Incendiaries on my Kobo
- I am reading Robert Jackson Bennett's City of Stairs in paper form. This is the first of my goal to read at least 10 books in our collection that "belong to" or were selected for me by my wife.
