This week’s reading plan:

Should have Olga Tokarczuk’s 2018 Booker Prize (etc. etc.) winner “Flights” finished before the week begins and I’ll make a point of sharing my thoughts. Novel for this week to be David Chariandy’s “Brother”, the Canadian author’s follow up to GG-nominated “Soucouyant” and one of this year’s Canada Reads.

Purchase a copy of Brother here.

Short stories (7) to come from “Sisters of the Revolution”, although I am dying to get at “Florida” by Lauren Groff. Next week. Sisters is overdue from the library 🙂

I’ll be selecting poems from the 2015 edition of the Griffin Poetry Prize Anthology. Literally the most recent addition of poetry to my library. Poetry was an early love of mine, but I really developed a hatred for it over the last decade – as though I was angry at it for seeming to retreat ever farther from real life. However, I declare those days over, at least until I’ve waded back into the stream for a while.

Lastly, I’ll be adding some essays to my week. TBD.
