What Fiction are you reading this week, September 22, 2024? [View all]

Happy Fall/Equinox


Just started reading The Evil Men Do by John McMahon. A murder in a small town in Georgia reveals professional rivals, angry neighbors, and a wronged ex-wife. Murder might be the least of its troubles; we will see what happens when ordinary people become capable of evil. (As if we didn't already know...)

Listening to The Night Ocean by Paul La Farge. A novel about secrets and scandals, psychiatry and pulp fiction, inspired by the lives of H.P. Lovecraft and his circle. A tale "about the way that stories earn our trust, and betray it."
