Close to a half-year's reading list.
The book I cracked open last night is about as "escapist" as I ever get as it pertains to reading: Vineland, Thomas Pynchon's 1990 novel about "washed-up 60s radicals." Mostly as a post-it note to myself, here's the reading list to date in 2019.
Slobodan Milosevic and the Destruction of Yugoslavia, non-fiction by Louis Sell
Baudolino, a novel by Umberto Eco
Dreamers, a factually-based novel by Volker Weidermann
Baseball in a River Town, local history by Justin Endres
Roumeli: Travels in Northern Greece, a travelogue by Patrick Leigh Fermor
Avignon Quintet, five novels by Lawrence Durrell
• Monsieur (1974)
• Livia (1978)
• Constance (1982)
• Sebastian (1983)
• Quinx (1985)
