El formato de esta colección es innovador porque permite leer directamente la obra en inglés sin necesidad de usar el diccionario al integrarse un glosario en cada página.

Tenéis más info de este relato y de la colección Read&Listen en http://bit.ly/ndSymF

I’m reading it now … definitely slower, steadier than a few of my summer book list.

I’m kind of in the mood for heavier and deeper — must be the weather — but I’m feeling like some short stories would fit the bill. I might just veer off the novel path for some old Richard Yates pieces.

What I find important are reviews in the New Yorker or the New York Review of Books. For example, I read “WOLF” because of a review and found it to be a difficult read leading me to analyze all along the way to find out why it won the Booker Prize. Otherwise I love my Brand Name Authors like Janet Evanovitch!

The only book that I get on release day (or as soon as possible afterwards) is each year’s Best American Short Stories anthology, although my local indie bookstore still hasn’t gotten their allotment so I’m sans BASS2011 still.

Am glad to find them, matter of fact. Just finished reading one ‘big’ book for this season, lots of buzz, was so depressing (because the protagonist was depressed)I had to make myself finish it. Very disappointing to find a highly touted book that turns out badly. But onward! I’m sure a good book exists on my to-be-read shelf!
