2011 in books
I’m going to go ahead and put this here. These are all the books I read cover to cover in 2011.
Presented without any comment! Other than to say that 6 were especially horrible and I read them with growing dread. I will leave it up to you to guess which ones.
1. Life of Pi, Yann Martel
2. The Dante Club, Matthew Pearl (re-read)
3. Beatrice & Virgil, Yann Martel
4. When Everything...
“What I call “the cover design test” would be useful in Comp Lit discussions:...”
– JACKET MECHANICAL: 1. Fictions
Catching up on some reading; I read this footnote and reread it and thought “Dang, why didn’t any of my lit classes ever talk about the cover?”
