Conor Tuohy is 66% done with Vile Bodies
Pre-catholicism, satiriising a period that I'm only vaguely familiar with. It's bleakly funny, but I'm definitely missing too much of the context for it to be great.

Conor Tuohy is 56% done with Brideshead Revisited: The Sacred and Profane Memories of Captain Charles Ryder
It wobbled into being decent for a couple chapters but is back to being brilliant. Paragraph for paragraph his writing is better than almost anyone in descriptive beauty of the setting and feeling or mood.

Slowly but surely. I'm going to read about four novels after this. Anyone with an imaginative faculty can't read this much fucking economics and not rebel a bit.

I dont think im going to love this book in the end, I feel like it'll be decently good, but every couple of pages, sometimes for paragraphs, he shows that he's a truly great writer.
