It recently occurred to me that books are like vacations. There is often an extended period of anticipation, during which I eagerly look at the calendar each morning to see how much longer before the book comes out. Then there is the journey, the act of reading the book and experiencing all it has to offer. About halfway through the book I get that uneasy feeling. It’s halfway over. It’s three-...

| I'd read Magic Time before, about 15 years ago, but remembered little of it, so it was almost like it was new to me reading it this time around. Kinsella is a master of baseball stories, but this one isn't as strong in my mind as some of his others. ...more | |

| Somehow, I never managed to read this book during high school, or college. I decided to read it on the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day. It turned out to be one of the best war novels I have encountered. It's bleakness and realism jumped off the pa ...more | |

“The time will come when diligent research over long periods will bring to light things which now lie hidden. A single lifetime, even though entirely devoted to the sky, would not be enough for the investigation of so vast a subject... And so this knowledge will be unfolded only through long successive ages. There will come a time when our descendants will be amazed that we did not know things that are so plain to them... Many discoveries are reserved for ages still to come, when memory of us will have been effaced.”
