Fall 2018 reading “assignments”

Well, I did set a goal to read more. At the moment I’m in various stages of commitment and completion of the following works:

  • “El arbol” by Maria Luisa Bombal (“assigned” by an amazing Spanish student who recommended I read it to brush up on my Spanish. She said it’s her favorite short story so far. I confess my Spanish skills were so rusty I couldn’t understand more than a few words out of 20 so I got it in English and NOW I’ll go back to the Spanish. 
  • Vivian Elizabeth Fauville by Julia Deck, a French psychological novel with unique narration
  • Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan for a Stoughton community book group in Sept
  • Between the World & Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates with a colleague at work to discuss in Sept
  • Kitchens of the Great Midwest by J Ryan Stradak in audio book form with Kelly, Courtney & Jill in Oct
