Karen's review of Villages: A Novel
Villages: A Novel by John Updike
I have this among a hundred others that are on my 'to-read' list. I think I'm among other book 'junkies' and I buy books like crazy at discount stores, flea-markets, garage sales and also at the library when they are selling their 'discarded' books. I had a chilling thought after bringing home the last dozen or so. . . "what if I'm to be bed-ridden and home-bound? What if I've gotten all these books subconciously because I'll need something to occuply myeself while I'm recovering from a long illness, or a horrible accident?" (lets hope I'm just getting to read all these books at my own leisure, while I'm outdoors, soaking up the sun (through my sunscreen laden skin) and sipping on pink lemonade.)
