Yeah, it's pretty good so far--not as good as Cane, but better than Home to Harlem or Passing.

Catch as Catch Can by Joseph Heller

No One Writes to the Colonel by Gabriel Garcia-Marquez

"Day After Night" by Anita Diamant [who wrote the brilliant "The Red Tent." It's about all the people who had no legal papers after they were starting to be rescued out of the concentration camp - they go to another camp in Palestine, and soon, to the place given to the Hebrews as their "Zion." Except for these few ladies, why their papers are lost, and what life is like at the camp.

Whatever I find in the library.
Blink holds my interest at the moment.

Self-Help by Lorrie Moore

Middle Passage by Charles Johnson
