What I'm reading right now is Shakespeare's Henry V.

For school I'll be reading Alan Lightman's The Diagnosis.

AHWOSG rocked, but it had rocked on a first reading as well, so no surprise. The book seemed to have more of a shape on this second read: the grief and random horror of the first section colored what followed extremely well, and it gives even the wildest and funniest bits a reason to be there: enjoy what you have while it lasts.

Trollope's Dr. Wortle's School waits by the levee wash, mixing cocktails with a plastic tipped cigar.
