Ajax Penumbra: 1969

by Robin Sloan

Charming lil ditty.

Boyhood Island

by Karl Ove Knausgård

So, volume 3 of Karl's struggle. Liked this one less than the first two. Perhaps it was something to do with becoming familiar with Karl's style, and the fact this one focused mostly on the experiences of a young kid, well him as a young...

Exhalation

by Ted Chiang

Let's just put it this way: I don't think Ted Chiang is a very good writer. There's a kind of university essay style about his prose; something a little bit cold, distant, like the way your mind's eye might describe a neutron star, or th...

Falling Man

by Don DeLillo

Oh What A Paradise It Seems

by John Cheever

I always wanted to read Cheever. But this, I don't know, it just seemed an ill-formed mess. The character's actions weren't believable, the plot jumbled but not with much juice. Good on him for having a crack at enviro-fiction in 1980 bu...
