Few things beat that embarrassingly giddy, and excited feeling you get when a new book arrives, as if a world of possibility unfolds before you. The same goes, I think, for records and video games and used to be the case for DVDs and VHSs.
I’m still finishing Letters to Milena by Kafka, but I might fit in a story here and there by Chekhov, who is supposed to be a pretty good Russian realist author (whatever that means). Will update you.
