Back to Books

A few book-related links, before we all descend into election mania:

• Adam Kirsh on the epic 2666 at Slate.

• A list of books that take place on a single day. I've read two of them - Seize the Day and Ulysses.

• Speaking of Seize the Day, the New York Times on Saul Bellow's neighborhood, Humboldt Park.
  

• Viewing our current recession through the lens of Depression-era literature.
  

• Bruce Weber on the late Milton Katselas, acting teacher, director, and part owner of Skylight Bookstore in Los Feliz.

By the way, if you stop by Vroman's and show your "I Voted" sticker tomorrow, you can get a nifty 10% off your purchase. See you at the polls.
