Finished this week:
Currently reading:
Hotel World by Ali Smith. Read 50%. This is for class. Enjoying this so far - the prose style is odd and doesn't seem to change much for each character…I don't know if that'll change. I'm hoping so, I feel like it might start to grate soon! Very different from what I imagined, and I'm liking the theme of memory.
Birthday Letters by Ted Hughes. 29 pages read. Making my way slowly through this as I make notes on each poem. The lecture for it was Thursday gone, which I missed, but I reckoned it was worth following through with anyway.
I'm also thinking of starting Afrofuturism: The World of Black Sci Fi & Fantasy Culture by Ytasha L. Womack, my first non-fiction of the year, once I'm done with Heart of Darkness, which I expect to finish this week, as well as Birthday Letters. I feel like reading critical work outside of class would be beneficial to me, and "afrofuturism" is something I'm interested in.
