I'd like to hear what you liked about it. Finished a couple days ago, 
waiting for a strike that didn't come. Felt rather undirected to me, like 
she never quite decided which journey she wanted to tell. I watched my 
sympathy for the main character lessen as the book progressed and finished 
more depressed than encouraged. Probably it all just means I'm a Bad 
Person(tm).

Just picked up Potter #2. Read the first in Kenya, but that was the only one 
around. Now playing, Rushdie's "The Ground Beneath Her Feet." (U2 reference, 
or was he first?) His knowledge is absolutely amazing. Simple exchanges read 
like mythologies, which often feature in their own right. Drown me in 
language, I like it.

Postscript Pica,

Nathan
