Current Reading - Books best thread
I finished the al-Qa'ida book yesterday, and today I needed something paperback that I could take into the garden and sit in the sun with (a fair amount of my unread fiction is now in the form of nice Folio Society editions, which I'm buggered if I'm taking outdoors with me), so I grabbed my Spanish dictionary as well and am slowly working my way through Seis problemas para Don Isidro Parodi by H. Bustos Domecq, otherwise known as Jorge Luis Borges and Adolfo Bioy Casares. I've heard a lot about their collaborations, but never read any before - as far as I'm aware they've not been translated into English - and I'm enjoying this one, so far.
