LITERATURE: Up Next – The Handmaid’s Tale

Tough decision–what to read next.  But with about 150 books on the shelf, all now nice and neatly alphabetized by author, it’s quite a delight to be able to browse and pull out what strikes me.

There are quite a few Hemingways to read, and some others like The French Lieutenant’s Woman or Passage to India and so many more have been calling out to me.  But Atwood won my attention for several reasons; I like her work, I have a few of her books on the shelf, and I’ve been intrigued by the generally great reviews The Handmaid’s Tale seems to have accumulated.

So that, while still pushing through Barthes, Hypertext, and Ethics, is what’s open on the table right now.
