Books I didn’t finish
60 Stories (read about 4) – Donald Barthelme
The White Album – Joan Didion (only the title essay, though I was blown away by it. The rest were too time/place specific)
A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again & Other Essays – David Foster Wallace (only read that one essay, that was enough)
Necromancer (I was interested in the science fiction elements, but I couldn’t get past page 3 -that worn-out detective/Blade Runner character is too played out at this point. Maybe not when this book was written…)
