I struggle with longer novels lately. My mind is always shifting and I find I get a lot more from reading fragments of non-fiction (mainly philosophy & esoteric stuff these days), short stories, and an excellent book on film called The Big Screen by David Thomson (highly recommended). Dune left me cold, tbh. Wolf Hall I keep thinking I should read. Also, Don Quixote, but it's enormous! Hats off to you for tackling weighty novels.

I recently bought House of Leaves and am looking forward to it. My favorite book this year was long, Foucault’s Pendulum by Umberto Eco. I'm currently reading The Age of Innocence and then it will be Mrs. Dalloway.
