Friday was supposed to be the day I walk to the local Grahamstown Hospice to find myself some vintage clothing treasures but I found myself discovering literary treasures instead.
Some I have never read and must, while others I would love to read again.
Next time I'll be focused and get some clothes.
(ph: me)
ps. I recommend Ken Saro-Wiwa's Soza Boy to everyone, everyone in the world!
I'm doing first year English this year, and we have a new set work every 2 weeks. Yikes. All this, when I still haven't finished Half of A Yellow Sun. What can I do? I love books too much to turn them away with a "there is no room in this inn" :)
ReplyDeleteI took English Lit in my undergrad and it was one the best decisions I've ever made. We also had a new setwork every 2 weeks and it can get a bit overwhelming but, trust me - it's totally worth it!
ReplyDeleteRecommended books:
Desertion (Abdulrazak Gurnah), The god of Small Things (Arundhati Roy) and Welcome to Our Hillbrow (Phaswane Mpe)
