Forgive my very real problem of book hoping.

This was recommended from Cliff’s review at Better Than Food Book Reviews on YouTube. I’ve been rather melancholic and the call from the Void was so strong that I needed to read something that’ll make me think of the sun again. And not just for natural vitamin D profiling my pores, but to see a worth in life. Tony Bourdain, so far, was a wonderful writer.

So far, singe and handily, this collection is already going to plow the contour line from my map of short story volumes.

Reading at work since it’s been slow and out of cadence of typical customer’s chaos. “My mother is a fish,” made me chuckle. There must be some sort of device at work there.

First Faulkner I’ve ever cracked open. So far, the novel’s reputation is exactly, and more, than I knew I could bear. But it will be a level higher in my readings that will mountain like the dawn to other books of such renown.
