time

I've been thinking about taking some time off from knitting and instead read again for a while. Or maybe just some balance. I listened to David Sedaris' book When You are Engulfed in Flames during my visit to Japan, and have been working on Douglas Coupland's The Gum Thief since I returned home. I also checked out Truman Capote's In Cold Blood and have Herman Melville's Moby Dick on my ipod. I really like reading; it seems that I do it out of necessity for school, but that I might like to take a little 'me time' (such a gross phrase) when it comes to reading. I'm interested in Russian authors that wrote about the times during the revolution, and modern American writers. If there are suggestions, please share them!
