Beowulf/The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Finished reading the James Lee Burke novel. Always enjoy his writing; so descriptive.
Picked up a copy of Beowulf in a Book Exchange place, the first long poem written in English, probably about 1500 years ago. I hadn't read it in some twenty-five years. What a wonderful, heroic poem. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Great writing.
Today, I started The Unbearable Lightness of Being. Haven't read it before nor seen the movie. Received incredible reviews, one critic from the Washington Times called the author (Chech writer Milan Kundera) "the world's greatest living writer."
On my own eighth novel, I've now finished 27 chapters (163 pages, 61,000 words) so far. Moving along quite well.
