4/26: persephone books
There has been so much reading for my courses and research projects this semester that I haven't had time for leisure reading in the evenings, and I've missed the chance to get lost in a book without having to take notes. Now that the semester's reading assignments are winding down, I've been able to start a book for sheer pleasure. I chose The Blank Wall by Elisabeth Sanxy Holding. I picked it because it's a Persephone book and it was available as an e-book so I could buy it and start it right away (and not have to wait until it arrives from England). And today I received my copy of Persephone Biannually in the mail, which includes a brief description of every book Persephone publishes--just in time to get me psyched for summer reading.

I'm longing, longing, longing for the time to read. But, in reality, there is time, and you have reminded me. THANKS!
Hi, Sandy--I hadn't realized how much the lack of leisure-reading was affecting me, but it really was making me feel off-kilter. I'm looking forward to getting on-kilter, and I'm wishing you happy reading days ahead!
