I read widely from many genres. Perhaps this blog will feature fewer ratings and reviews, but I certainly intend to write about my reading life - it's the subject I most find myself wanting to talk about.
Currently reading

Symphony for the City of the Dead: Dmitri Shostakovich and the Siege of Leningrad

Hello, Miss Dickinson
I read "The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson," as edited by Thomas H. Johnson, from cover to cover when I was an undergraduate. In the subsequent years, I've dipped in and out from time to time, as the spirit moved me.
Since the beginning of 2016, I have been reading it straight through, again. This time, I read each poem aloud at least once - an experience everyone should have, I believe. I finished earlier this month.
I have no deep insights to offer at this time. Basically, just bragging.
