Myles is starting Filthy Animals
Is it bad that I thought the strongest story was the stand alone, Anne of Cleves? The interlinked ones are a pleasure to recognize— “oh you’re coming at it from this angle” — but ultimately the Lionel and Charles arc wasn’t very credible to me. I’m not sure what Charles sees in him other than pity.

Myles is starting Playworld
Fifty pages in the same day I finished Philip Roth’s The Human Stain and I’m realizing I have no desire to keep reading this smug, overstuffed thing. I’ll finish it but god it better get interesting fast. Polished sentences aren’t enough on their own and compared to Roth they aren’t even that polished.

Myles is reading Fresh Complaint: Stories
I was disappointed to found this book for a dollar at my local library, even more disappointed to found out the stories aren’t bad. The saddest part? The best ones were all published before 2008...

Apparently, Isaac Newton was a total prick.

Myles is reading Maximes et réflexions diverses
These get repetitive, but they're great. Too bad La Rochefoucauld spoke out of ass most of the time.
