I used to do a summer reading list, but forgot till now.
Finished 'Suttree,' Cormac McCarthy; 'Mortality,' Christopher Hitchens; re-read 'The Fall,' Camus, and just finished 'Stoner,' by John Williams. If you read anything this summer read 'Stoner,' it covers human nature simply but profoundly. People living life. One of those books you can't put down. Suttree on the other hand can lose you in words. Even though we forget about death, it's always there. Hitchens was such a great voice.
And this for the readers.
