Berkeley is on page 80 of 352 of So We Read On: How The Great Gatsby Came to Be and Why It Endures
I love great gatsby in all its flawed exploration of the broken American dream glory. I love it even more through Maureen corrigan’s eyes and research.

Rereading great gatsby and reading this book for the first time before seeing the gatsby ballet at the end of the month!

So We Read On: How The Great Gatsby Came to Be and Why It Endures

Berkeley
Berkeley is on page 50 of 288 of The Lightness
To quote the protagonist this is a “Bad Girls Buddhist boot camp” that is so far, heavy on the foreshadowing. At least every 10 pages there is a line amounting to “before things changed” or “before the event.”

Very much living in anticipation for a book partially about staying present.
