added a status update: For those who followed my blog "Updates on a Free-Verse Life," some news! I've migrated to Substack, where I can post for free vs. for an annual fee. Substacks are a little different. They're newsletters readers subscribe to and receive in their inboxes. Anyway, if you're interested, head over to updatesonafreeverselife.substack.com. It's the same new, same new: riffs on reading, writing, publishing, and teaching.

| This book was the most depressing and dark work of fiction I’ve read to date. It won the Booker Prize in 2020. I try to read a couple of Booker Prize winners each year. Though I don’t always love the winners, most of them have been thought-provoking. ...more | |
