Though my novel reading has been on hold since January, my short fiction addiction has had a chance to amp. Here’s the list of books I’ve read since January (not counting edits for peers, literary journals, poetry books, or readings from my Japanese Lit course.)
The Elephant Vanishes – Murakami Haruki
Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman – Murakami Haruki
Fine Just the Way it is – Annie Proulx
Unaccustomed Earth – Jhumpa Lahiri
Runaway – Alice Munro
Too Much Happiness – Alice Munro
Collected Stories – Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Bird by Bird – Anne Lamott
In Persuasion Nation – George Saunders
Black Outs – Craig Boyko
Birds of America – Lorrie Moore
Burning Chrome – William Gibson
Any suggestions to add? Planning to purchase Mark Jarman’s new book after I heard him read at Fort Cafe, as well as Bill Gaston’s short fiction works.
