That's a classic well worth re-reading...

ATM I'm re-reading Wallace Stegner's, Angle of Repose.

RE-reading indeed! I have to read each page twice. It's interesting, but pretty deep.

I'm not that disciplined a reader unfortunately, to keep a stack of books waiting - I mostly pick books that grab my attention for some reason, in a book store or the library.

I am almost finished with Thomas Hardy: The Mayor of Casterbridge

The story is a bit far fetched, but I like the 19th century writing still 🙂

Sebastian Barry: Days Without End (2016)

Still grinding through Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Glad I stuck with it this far (just over halfway) it's getting better. 🙂

Arnodl Nolden: Auf Schiffen, Schienen, Pneus

I have inherited the book from my grandfather and didn't read it up to now. Language is a bit dated (100 year old book), but the first person story teller is a nice chap.
