The book that the city is reading together this year is Sandra Cisnero's The House on Mango Street. Interesting. I read the book earlier this year. A tattered old library discard as a matter of fact.
There was a giveaway of copies of Mango St earlier. I heard the announcement, once in English, once in Spanish. Bright new copies with tight spines.
A couple years ago the city book was Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. I started to read it. Got a few pages in. But, I don't know, wrong time, not in the mood. When I go back I'll probably start from the beginning.
Cool overcast day. Our security guard, who has to man a little desk by the door, was just wishing for long sleeves.
