What are you reading? August 30, 2024

In WAYR?, I note what I’m reading and comment...you note what you are reading and comment. Occasionally, I may add a section or a link related to books…

I am reading:

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson- This book came up in a conversation I was having and someone pointed out that the book was very different from the movie. It has been decades since I read this so I picked it up this week, will finish it next week.

Mr. Hyde was pale and dwarfish, he gave an impression of deformity without any nameable malformation, he had a displeasing smile, he had borne himself to the lawyer with a sort of murderous mixture of timidity and boldness, and he spoke with a husky ,  whispering and and somewhat broken voice; all these were points against him, but not all of these together could explain the hitherto unknown disgust, loathing, and fear with which Mr, Utters regarded him.

Autospy by Patricia Cornwell- Nice mystery that I am now making my way through...I like it but it’s nothing special...just some enjoyable reading.

2666 by Roberto Bolano- Had to put this down for a second as it is winding it’s way to nowhere. I will pick pt back up.

Entering the Silence: Becoming a Monk and a Writer (The Journals of Thomas Merton Book 2) by Thomas Merton-
